    Have you ever lost something in your backyard? A coffee cup? A child’s toy?

    Decades later, the things left behind in a backyard can tell archeologists a lot about who lived there and the image they wanted to project to the world.

    That’s what Dr. William White found when he started digging up backyards in 2015 in Boise’s River Street neighborhood, an area where African Americans and immigrants were forced to live more than 100 years ago.

    Dr. White is an assistant professor of anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley and the author of the forthcoming book, “Segregation Made Them Neighbors: An Archaeology of Racialization in Boise, Idaho.”

    He’ll be talking about his research at Boise’s Fettuccine Forum on Oct. 6.

    Men outnumber women in the Idaho Legislature more than two to one, and often lag behind in other political offices in the Gem State.

    So how do women fare in Idaho politics? That was the question that Dr. David Adler, the head of the Alturas Institute, wanted to dig into as part of his "Conversations with Exceptional Women," this Thursday and Friday at the Yanke Center in Boise.

    Idaho Legislature's Minority Leader Senator Melissa Wintrow and Assistant Minority Leader Representative Lauren Necochea joined Idaho Matters to help us answer this question, along with Dr. David Adler.

    As we continue to see heated debates around social justice issues, education freedom and how post-pandemic life might look - what seems to be lacking is a place for kids and caregivers to find resources to be able to talk about these issues and attitudes.
