What is Veteran's Day?

The Native peoples of the Pacific Northwest, including groups like the Tlingit, Haida, Makah, and Chinook, lived along the coast from northern California to Alaska. They built strong cedar plank houses, carved beautiful totem poles, and traveled in wooden canoes. The ocean and forests provided salmon, shellfish, berries, and tall trees for tools and shelter. They held potlatches, special gatherings with storytelling, feasts, and gift-giving. This video explores the culture, traditions, and art of the Pacific Northwest Indians and how they worked with nature and honored the land they lived on.

Totems, Canoes, and Culture: Native Peoples of the Pacific Northwest

The real Pirates of the Caribbean were far more complex—and sometimes more brutal—than the swashbuckling legends in movies. From the late 1600s to the early 1700s, this region was a hotspot for piracy, where sailors turned outlaw raided ships for gold, goods, and freedom. Figures like Blackbeard, Anne Bonny, and Calico Jack were real people who navigated a dangerous world shaped by colonial powers, naval warfare, and trade routes. This episode separates fact from fiction, exploring the economic, political, and social realities of piracy in the Caribbean.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Fact vs. Fiction

Fall is the season when leaves turn bright shades of red, orange, and yellow before they drop to the ground. But why does this happen? During spring and summer, leaves are full of chlorophyll, the chemical that makes them green and helps trees make food from sunlight. When fall arrives and the weather gets cooler, trees slow down food-making, and the green color fades away. That’s when the other colors—reds, yellows, and oranges—appear! This video explores how weather, daylight, and leaf chemistry all work together to create the beautiful colors of fall.

The Real Pirates of the Caribbean: Fact and Fiction

Pumpkins are one of fall’s most famous symbols—and they have a long history! Native Americans were among the first to grow pumpkins, using them for food long before they became decorations. When European settlers arrived, they learned to cook and bake with pumpkins, helping them survive tough winters. Over time, pumpkins became a fall favorite, especially at harvest festivals and Halloween. Today, people carve pumpkins into glowing jack-o’-lanterns, decorate porches, and enjoy pumpkin pie and spice. This video explores how a simple plant became a fun, colorful part of fall traditions around the world.
