WGZS - Treaties: What Was Gained and What Was Lost
A series of five five-minute segments will educate listeners about what the Fond du Lac people gained and what they lost through the treaties with the Federal Government. The segments will look at both the positive and the impact that the treaties had on hunting, fishing and gaming and more.
