documentaries that tell the untold stories
No one is untouched by history and everyone has a connection to this land
The majority of documentaries on U.S. history are dedicated to stories that take place in coastal states and large cities. Mostly neglecting the people who work day after day, building and defining the heart of our nation. Long overlooked is the rich, diverse and dynamic history of the American Midwest.
We tell the origin stories. Stories of struggle and accomplishment. Of lives built and lives lost. Stories of legacy and the foundation of our nation’s heartland. Stories that reach around the world and connect us all.
Join us for an incredible journey
We are developing a series of twelve documentaries - three on the Rock Island Arsenal - from the frontier to global reach, and nine on the history of the central Mississippi valley - from the arrival of indigenous people to today.
Follow us - Help us - Grow with us as we uncover the defining stories of America's growth and strength - the American Midwest.
