SUMMARY:St. Paul – Learning from Place: Bdote
DESCRIPTION:Learning from Place: Bdote is an immersive experience that brings participants to sites of great significance to Dakota people in the Twin Cities. Participants will learn from Dakota community members through stories and histories that have often been left out of our state’s history. This experience is open to the public and is particularly beneficial for educators who want to include new perspectives in their history curriculum.  \nLearning from Place: Bdote will begin at Fort Snelling State Park (parking permit is required). After a break for “lunch on your own\,” we will meet at Wicaḣapi (pronounced we-CHA-ha-pee; formerly Indian Mounds Regional Park)\, followed by a visit to the Oȟéyawahe/Pilot Knob Preservation Site (pronounced oh-HAY-ya-wa-hee). We will be outside the entire time. Participants need to provide their own transportation\, lunch\, snacks\, and beverages.  \nThere will be about 1.5 miles of walking throughout the day\, sometimes on unpaved paths\, as well as standing for periods of time. We will provide audio headsets for amplification of the tour guides.
