Monday Sep 02, 2024
Mike explored the legacy of a historical figure initially viewed as an adversary by the United States but subsequently regarded as a hero. Known as "The Panther Across the Sky," he was a proficient hunter, warrior, and speaker who spearheaded a rebellion. Although he faced opposition from the United States, his unifying leadership and empathy for his adversaries secured his historical significance. Mike emphasized a particular event where "The Panther Across the Sky" mercifully spared a contingent of Kentucky militia, opting to deescalate the conflict instead of permitting a massacre.
