In a place where we’re told divisions among people, land, and history run deep, we remain a community bound by the weight of what’s come before us.
From the early conflicts between Indigenous nations and European settlers, the creation of a nation and a state, to the enslavement of people brought here against their will, through the upheaval of the Civil War and the ongoing struggles for freedom, community, and belonging, Northwest Arkansas holds stories that demand to be heard.
In this season of the underview, “the story of Northwest Arkansas,” we journey back—not just to remember, but to reckon.
We’ll explore the lives that shaped this land: Indigenous nations, settlers driven by Manifest Destiny, enslaved people, neighbors torn apart by Civil War, immigrants who helped build an agricultural empire and the arrival of global capitalism.
Together, we’ll trace the path of power through these Ozark Mountains, seeking ways to heal the divides that still shape us today.
This isn’t just history—it’s the roots of our present, grounding us in where we’ve been and what it means for us now.
If you’re looking to understand how we arrived at this moment—and how we move forward—we have answers.
My name is Mike Rusch, and I invite you to join us January 7th as we remember, honor, and work to repair these untold stories, as we work towards our collective future & the shaping of this place.
