Cahokia should be mandatory learning in schools that Native Americans in what is now the US built great pyramids and a metropolis bigger than most in Europe right here. I think it is really cool that my Ponca ancestors helped build it!

Imagine being proud of your little story and then she shares one that people will still read every day in 200 years. Imagine doing a writing competition with your wife and she becomes so recognizable that you'll always be known as Mary Shelley's husband

Powerful. 🧡
