The relationship between white man, his government, and the Osage was not easy, fraught with prejudice, broken promises, and 2nd class status. Then, oil was discovered, ‘black gold”, and it brought the oil barons. Oil wealth changed everything for the Osage Nation, money, as well as challenges that disrupted their traditional way of life for the new millionaires.
Nevertheless, Mollie Burkhart, her sisters, Minnie, Anna, and Rita, lived the best they, could mixing tradition with new customs. That is, until, the Osage started dying.
Who was killing the Osage? Would anyone figure out the mystery while any remained alive? Who would die next? Was anyone safe?
Jill's cat, Olivia, joins us as our newest "co-host'! She has a lot to say this episode! LOL!
