Season 3 features inspiring, gallant, even audacious stories of REAL 19th Century women from the Wild West. Season 2 features women from California history while Season 1 Tells stories of women from California’s Gold Rush. Until recently, historians and the public have dismissed ”conflict history,” and focused more on the history that opposing beliefs could manage to agree on for some mutually beneficial end. Important elements that are absolutley necessary for understanding American history have sometimes been downplayed or virtually forgotten. If we do not incorporate racial and ethnic conflict in the presentation of the American experience, we will never understand how far we have come and how far we have to go. No matter how painful, we can only move forward by accepting the truth.
