Ancestral Connection to the Earth.
Season 3 of The Earth Keepers Podcast
Who were these ancestors of ours who left their homeland – the only places their families had known for hundreds or thousands of years – and climbed aboard boats to sail for North America?
What made them leave the places they were indigenous to in order to colonize a land indigenous to someone else?

I know I did.
But those answers, the ones we can recite by heart – religious persecution, the Irish potato famine, the thrill of striking it rich and the promise of free land to anyone who could farm it – are really easy answers to a far more complicated question.
