On today's episode, author Jack Maher discusses his novel "Poppy: A Novel About A Colorful Colorado Life" and the titular "Poppy," Eric Douglas.Fayge and Mazal explore the incredible life of the man who, as curator for the Denver Art Museum, worked tirelessly to teach White America about and to love Native American art. His work still resonates today as the United States continues to grapple with its often bloody past with Indigenous Nations."Hold on to what is good, Even if it's a handful of earth. Hold on to what you believe, Even if it's a tree that stands by itself. Hold on to what you must do, Even if it's a long way from here. Hold on to your life, Even if it's easier to let go. Hold on to my hand, Even if someday I'll be gone away from you."- Crowfoot, Blackfoot warrior and orator 1830 - 1890Further Reading and Resources:Arizona State Museum Gallery of Nampeyo PotteryDancers Entering Plaza by Red Robinhttps://www.sandgoatmanorpublishing.com/https://www.jeffco.us/1251/Hiwan-Heritage-Parkhttps://www.denverartmuseum.org/en/exhibitions/weaving-foundationhttps://cudenverhistoryjournal.org/2022-volume-39/out-of-the-basement/https://www.bpl.org/blogs/post/natalie-curtis-burlin-and-angel-de-cora/Kramer, Barbara.
