The Camel Experiment: The Legend of Hi Jolly
Manage episode 362414891 series 2827314
In this episode, Marfa Public Radio’s Annie Rosenthal and Points South producer Christian Adam Brown revisit the unusual history found at the sites of OA contributor Sasha von Oldershausen’s essay, “The Camel Experiment.” Travel to Texas and meet Doug Baum and his Texas Camel Corps, survey the remnants of a mid-19th century military experiment that helped pave the way for the U.S.’s westward expansion. Follow along as Christian and Annie visit Quartzsite, Arizona, to learn about Hadji Ali, a Muslim immigrant who served as a military camel driver and is now memorialized as a folk hero.
See photos from Christian and Annie’s camel reporting, a short film about the Camel Experiment — and read Sasha von Oldershausen’s original essay — at OxfordAmerican.org/pointssouth.
