November is Native American Heritage Month so today we are continuing a special series from our partners at Emergence Magazine. It’s called Coming Home To The Cove, and it follows Theresa Harlan’s quest to chronicle the story of her family’s displacement from their ancestral lands. In this segment, we hear stories from some of the last Coast Miwok people to grow up on Tomales Bay.
