For example, in episode 4, "We were tasked with not showing the Wampanoag language as text on screen, so we needed to approach the sequence more abstractly. I decided to depict language as a tangible object, and wanted to express the idea of language being a gift that is passed through generations"

From Samantha: "It’s been a really wonderful and creatively fulfilling process working in the ledger art style to bring each animation sequence to life for Crash Course Native American History, and each sequence presents its own unique challenges."

We used ledger art as inspiration for our animations because it originated as a method for Plains tribes to document their history. One of our guiding principles on this series is to prioritize native sources, so this medium felt like a natural fit.
