When World War II saw thousands of Iowans fight in the European and Pacific wars, f40,000 German, Italian and Japanese prisoners of war were brought to the Hawkeye state to help with farm labor. Chad Timm, a professor of education at Simpson and himself a former high school history teacher, has spent decades researching the stories of those POWs in Iowa, the camps they lived in, and the relationships they developed with Iowans of that era. Chad stops by the podcast this week to talk about his research and his broader work helping secondary educators teach history.
