California Missions (Listener Request)
About this episode
Join me as I dive into another listener request!
This week's topic comes thanks to long time listener Sam, who requested I dive into the history of the California Missions.
Those of us who grew up in California likely remember learning about, and potentially even visiting, the Missions spread throughout the state. But what prompted their creation? Who lived in the Missions? And why do they continue to loom so large in California history?
