Burning Man is known for a lot of things: The art. The parties. The wooden man that’s set on ablaze every year. But most Burners don’t know much about the history of the land or its original inhabitants: the Pyramid Lake Paiutes
In this episode of THE INTERSECTION, reporter Lucy Kang explores the Piautes and their relationship to Burning Man.
