The omission of Native interviews here is an evasion of objective mind sets in presenting "history"---a feel good approach for ya'all. Sad license for glorifying invaders.

[@davidkirkpatrick67]

@@j.c.eaglesmith4259 ​ your assessment of the content here is incorrect. The information presented asserts the importance of Boone and other settlers of the period in the development of early Kentucky history. It is not a commendation or condemnation of actions taken by previous generations. It is simply a discussion of events and their relevance. Several episodes on the channel address the influence of indigenous peoples in the region and I’m sure many more will be coming.

@David Kirkpatrick Your reply ignores the fact of your content lacking Native interviews with valid input, which would provide the importance of Boone as an invasion leader like that---assigning Native assessments/perspectives as "incorrect" adds to the validity of my opinion--- which is not surprising.

[@davidkirkpatrick67]

@@j.c.eaglesmith4259 if you know Native historians and scholars who want come on definitely submit their names to the channel. I know Jameson is always looking for new interviews. However, I remain resolute in my assertion that a person does not need to be of any particular ethnicity, religion, or political persuasion to provide unbiased history.

Just discovered your channel researching my family tree and as someone who has never been to Kentucky, but now want to, I'm a fan! Also love the Slytherin reference!

[@KentuckyHistoryChannel]

Thank you and glad you enjoyed it! We try to get all the Harry Potter references in that we can. Lol
