What can we discover about a place by exploring the histories of those who once lived there–and those who live there still ? In what ways do cultures build upon each other as populations come and go? How do they complement each other, interact, and leave their marks on the people that come after them? And are cultures truly ever lost, even if the people move on or evolve and adapt? Lost Cultures: Living Legacies—the award-winning podcast from Travel + Leisure—returns for Season 2. This season, we’re diving into the stories of vibrant communities around the globe, including the Kānaka Maoli of Hawai‘i, the Sámi of Norway, the Baghdadi Jewish community of India, and more!

The Narragansett: Bridging the Past With the Future
In this episode, host Alisha Prakash speaks with three members of the Narragansett community—Lorén Spears, Executive Director of the Tomaquag Museum, and Dawn and Cassius Spears, founders of Ashawaug Farm—whose ancestral homelands are in present-day Rhode Island. The conversation delves into the preservation and legacy of Narragansett cultural traditions, examining pivotal historical events such as the Great Swamp Massacre of 1675 and the enduring struggle for sovereignty and representation. It also highlights the essential role of museums, education, oral history, and food sovereignty in preserving Indigenous language, knowledge, and cultural heritage, and in ensuring these traditions continue to empower future generations. The guests also share what to know and see when visiting Rhode Island to learn more about the Narragansett people's past and present.
