Louis.
So Sacagawea was a 16 or 17-year-old young woman, girl.
It's always hard to know what terms to use when we're talking about people in the past, but she was a 16-year-old girl.
I have a 16-year-old niece.
I always think about her now when I think about Sacagawea.
She was Shoshone, although there are some Hidatsa people and some Crow people who say that she was in fact Hidatsa and Crow.
But the dominant narrative, the narrative that has come down through written history is that she was a Shoshone girl who was...
Kidnapped by the Hidatsa when she was about 12 and then trafficked and trafficked at a fort where she was either sold to or won in a gambling game by Toussaint Charbonneau, who then marries her, takes her as one of his wives.
He had at least one other wife.
And, you know, it's unclear how much consent was involved in that relationship, but I don't think there was very much consent involved in that relationship.
But apart from being a young girl who experienced...
traumatic separation from her family in at least some form.
She was known as being a really good swimmer of the breaststroke.
She was a great swimmer.
She protected her younger siblings.
She was good with kids.
And she really liked coffee.
And these are just some of the things that we know about her as a human being, which don't show up in things like Lewis and Clark's
and a kind person.
Right.
