Show Notes
Lillie Morrell Burkhart was a wealthy and generous free thinker born in 1907, one year after the Osage Allotment Act was passed, giving the Osage control over oil production in their lands. This wealth put a target on many Osage during a period known as the Reign of Terror. But Lillie Morrell Burkhart survived. A story by Allison Herrera from Hominy, Oklahoma.
