Mount Rushmore is an iconic American monument, nestled in the Black Hills of South Dakota and featuring the faces of four (mostly) beloved presidents. Dawn is joined by friend and podcaster, Christine Blackburn, with stories of the sculptor, the presidents, and native people who got totally screwed over.
While many of us can easily picture Mount Rushmore in our heads, few of us know much about it beyond the heads. Even if you CAN name all four presidents featured (and only 30% of Americans can) the story of how and why this enormous feat of engineering - and total fuck-job on the Native Americans - came to pass.
Guest, Christine Blackburn, is a comedian and story-teller located in LA, and the host of several wildly successful shows.
