Have you ever wondered what the back story is of “Standing Bear Lake”? Standing Bear was a Ponca Chief and back in 1879 he was the center of a landmark civil rights case.
Larry Dwyer, an award-winning author, historian, attorney and friend of Darrel Draper, presented this groundbreaking story at our First Hour on October 12th.
For those that are interested in Omaha history and were unable to attend the October First Hour about Standing Bear, great news! Larry Dwyer’s excellent presentation is now available for all on YouTube.
