Coming Home to the Cove: A Story of Family, Memory, and Stolen Land – Episode 2

This series tells the multigenerational story of a Coast Miwok family's eviction from their ancestral home on a cove in Tomales Bay in Northern California, and one woman's effort to bring the living history of her family back to the land. Episode Two traces the Coast Miwok’s ten-plus-millennia-long presence in this landscape. Rich with interviews with a local historian and members of Theresa Harlan’s family, this episode asks: How is it that ten thousand years of continuous human civilization is seemingly invisible today? And who gets to define history?
