A plaque hangs in the rotunda of the Minnesota State Capitol, memorializing Minnesota's participation in a forgotten war. Today on New Narratives, we start to tell the story of that plaque--all the way from the beginning, hundreds of years ago. We'll tell the story of the Philippine-American War, talk about why it's a war nobody remembers, and explore what effects the war has today on the Philippines. This episode is part 1 of a 2-part series on the Philippine-American War.
Guests include: Professor Lisandro Claudio (he/him, University of California Berkeley), Dr. Theodore Gonzalves (he/him, Smithsonian National Museum of American History) and Professor Karin Aguilar San Juan (she/they/siya, Macalester College).
Music by Takénobu.
