would be nice to see the charts and images the speaker is referring to.

[@texasfossilguy]

No shit! 🤦‍♂️

[@brianbriggs8685]

Nice lecture, wish i could see the maps they are referring to.

[@lesleyanderson5697]

Why did you leave the maps out? More sense than looking at the speaker's face I think.

[@503dcccccccccccc]

i donno , if you look in his glasses when he looks at his slide you can see it for a split second hahaha

[@boaz9208]

Yeah, somebody really should contact the lecturer, obtain the presentation slides, and edit the video to include them.

[@stealthboy5767]

Nah

[@steveschilt7942]

My grandmother family worked for the Hudson Bay company. During that time frame.

[@eminow2002]

Is there anyway to get the visual aids and images that accompanied this presentation?

[@oregonhistory]

Unfortunately, neither the speaker nor OHS has the rights to display the images used in the slides online. We do try and include a speaker's slides whenever we can.

As an anthropologist in Oregon I'm dissappointed that there was not more information about the indigenous groups that were an integral part to European and American exploration. If all you're going to say about them is that they were "unenlightened", you should discuss the historical context of that term so as not to reinforce the longstanding idea that they were savages sitting lower on the 'social hierarchy'.

[@stealthboy5767]

Did you not listen to the beginning?

[@texasfossilguy]

He actually said they were not unenlightened if you listen again.

[@texasfossilguy]

Dear Oregon Historical society Historic maps from the 1500s to 1800s are not copyrighted any longer, they are publically available. Why bother with this worry wart nonsense? Noones going to sue you over publishing early exploration maps.

[@luismorato8647]

Total BS the Indians were the first explorers

[@texasfossilguy]

Some asian ships made it too, the stone anchors are found in California.
