Best Kept Secret - Chapter 4 - New World Rising
Best Kept Secret with Sean Stone • 28m
Native America: New World Rising examines Native Americans' continued efforts to preserve cultural traditions in the face of conquest and warfare. The hour centers on a little-known empire forged by the Comanches in the American West. Comanche elders speak of how they transformed the horse — a weapon of conquest — into a treasured ally. Other stories detail manuscripts written and painted by Aztec writers and artists committed to keeping their beliefs alive. Additionally, we learn the story of a Peruvian village what wove a massive suspension bridge from grass to connect the empire. For more than 500 years Quechua language speakers continually rebuild it, a show of force making clear that Inca culture was alive and well.
