598. Liz Ellis, Part 2.
598. Part 2 of our conversation with Liz Ellis about The
Great Power of Small Nations. Ellis (Peoria) tells the stories of the many
smaller Native American nations that shaped the development of
the Gulf South. Based on extensive archival research and oral
histories, Ellis’s narrative chronicles how diverse Indigenous
peoples—including Biloxis, Choctaws, Chitimachas, Chickasaws,
Houmas, Mobilians, and Tunicas—influenced and often challenged
the growth of colonial Louisiana.
