Sweat of His Brow
A story of the Dust Bowl. Run time: 2hr 15 min.
Following a stubborn young farmer on his quest to prove his merit and right the wrongs of the past, Sweat of His Brow is a story of hope, resilience, family, and fighting for a home; of making sacrifices and learning what is truly important. And a tale of how to keep…on…going…until the rain finally falls.
Watch/Listen to excerpts from the show.
I can’t help but find myself feeling homesick for Oklahoma. The Oklahoma we used to know—when the wheat bent in the breeze, always dancing, always straining against the wind—sometimes bowed over and then springing up again. I reckon we’re all homesick for Oklahoma as it was. I reckon we’ve all got to lean into the wind.
