Author: All That's Interesting March 13, 2024 Duration: 32:04
In the 1920s, the hills of northeast Oklahoma were soaked in oil — and blood.

And they often died in shocking and violent ways. This is the true story of the Osage Indian Murders and Killers of the Flower Moon.  https://allthatsinteresting.com/osage-indian-murders credits: https://allthatsinteresting.com/podcast-credits History Uncovered is part of the Airwave Media network: www.airwavemedia.com Learn more about your ad choices.
