Who was Lewis and Clark's interpreter?
Correct answer: Sacagawea

Player #162237 Alexandra
It's said she returned to her tribe. I believe she lived on the Shoshone reservation in Wyoming. There are people who say their grandparents recall an elderly woman relaying stories of the ocean and her travels. Charbonneau had several wives and its thought that one of them died and some thought it was Sacajawea.

Fascinating book by Stephen Ambrose called "Undaunted Courage" about the trip.

I read a book about her life. She was actually a Nez Pierce, there was an attack on her tribe when she was 4, and she was taken by the Shoshone. She was actually won in a card game by Charboneau when she was about 15. Then Charboneau was asked by Lewis & Clark to join the expedition and of course she went along. This book also said she lived out her days in St Louis. A very brief history.

She was not a girl when traveling with L&C, she was a *woman* carrying her child on her back all the way. She may not have been 18 yet (no one really knows) but things were different back then as far as what grown up meant. She did an adult job, not a girl's job.

Cú Chulainn, most of history that we are taught about in school and books are all lies to make people they want to look better .Like the story of Christopher Columbus, what a bunch of crap how do you discover a place where other people already live .And we believe it because it's what we're told

MoodyChef92025, Colombus opened the door to a land that few in Europe even knew existed. And Colombus did not even set foot on what is now America.. Ponce A De Leon, one of Colombus' ship captains, set foot on what is now Florida... On a seperate voyage of his own.. And remember, history is written by the winners.. Example.. How many books do you find written by southern, rebel, authors about the American Civil War.. not many..

Player #6482125, thank you. Today, “ history” is being taught by folks with a specific agenda as well. An agenda to suppress real thought. We cannot judge things that happened decades ago by today’s standards. We think we are so much better and wiser. But we are falling into the same traps.

MoodyChef92025, in the uk (1950s/60's) we were never taught "proper" history from anywhere else in the world. In fact, until I was about 14 I was quite unaware of any other country except france!

MoodyChef92025, suddenly, people are waking up to the questionable Columbus legacy. His statues are coming down even in Columbus, Oh.

MoodyChef92025, No offense but most history is "whitewashed" anyway.
