  • Leon Belmont: Gender and Celebrity in Minneapolis in 1880

    Leon Belmont: Gender and Celebrity in Minneapolis in 1880
    2025/02/20
    In 1880, a court case rocked Minneapolis society, and ruled the newspaper headlines. It was the case of Leon Belmont, a man accused of fraud. Authorities claimed that he was a woman wearing men’s clothing, passing herself off as a man. Why so much uproar over this particular case? And was it for the reasons we’d expect? Historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez explores what life looked like in late 1800s Minneapolis, why fraud might’ve been top of mind, and how historians make responsible histories. To get more insight into these questions and more, Chantel sat down with public historian Lizzie Ehrenhalt and PhD candidate Myra Billund-Phibbs.

  • Logging the Northwoods: Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox in Bemidji

    Logging the Northwoods: Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox in Bemidji
    2025/02/06
    The Midwest—and Minnesota in particular—is known for its roadside attractions, from the world’s biggest ball of twine (made by one person) to the world’s largest boot. But drive through the Northwoods town of Bemidji, Minnesota, and you’ll find towering statues of a legendary lumberjack Paul Bunyan and his pal— Babe the Blue Ox—looking over the lake shore. This episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodríguez probes the history—and myths—behind these statues. How did they end up there, and why does Paul Bunyan’s story linger in popular culture and what does it tell us about the logging industry? To better understand these questions and more, Chantel speaks with librarian and educator Jennifer Kleinjung, as well as Kasey Keeler, associate professor at the University of Wisconsin.

  • Enduring Connections: Native Community and Basketball

    Enduring Connections: Native Community and Basketball
    2025/01/23
    Women’s basketball is having a moment in the United States—in fact, Minnesota’s own WNBA team, the Lynx, have won four championships and even made it to the finals in 2024. But while sports have empowered women in modern society, the history of basketball—not unlike the history of women in this country—is, well, complicated. Peek into the far corner of the Minnesota History Center’s exhibit on girlhood, and you’ll uncover another layer to that history—the relationship between Native communities and basketball. In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez dives into the intimate and complex history of Native peoples and what came to be known as rez, or reservation, ball. How did Native people develop a deep, communal connection to something that was introduced as part of an effort to destroy that very sense of community? To better understand these intricacies, Chantel talks with historian and former ball-player Syd Beane, along with former player and coach Brook LaFloe and documentary filmmaker Leya Hale.
