Whiskey Rebellion 061: Stolen Children

Horrifying accounts of immigrant children separated from their parents have dominated the news over the past several weeks. Frank and David look at the history of child separation, including:

• How slavery frequently separated parents from children and how black families sought to find lost family members after emancipation
• How Native American boarding schools created a kind of cultural genocide in removing Indian children from their families and communities
• How the orphan train relocated poor children from New York to rural communities
