The six-part, 12-hour documentary series explores the country's founding struggle and its eight-year War for Independence.

After a decade in development, legendary documentarian Ken Burns is set to release his long-awaited series, The American Revolution. Burns returns to Rapid Response to share key lessons from the founding of the United States—and the parallels between the revolutionary era and today. He also reflects on his admiration for Lin-Manuel Miranda's Hamilton, the obstacles he faces in his ongoing quest for truth, and why the pursuit of virtue is as essential to American democracy as the pursuit of happiness.Visit the Rapid Response website here: https://www.rapidresponseshow.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In November 1775, as tensions between the British Empire and its rebellious colonies continued to escalate, Virginia's royal governor made a radical—and to some, terrifying—proclamation: Any enslaved person who fled a revolutionary enslaver and joined the British Army would gain their freedom. Known to history as Dunmore's Proclamation, this single decree changed the course of the American Revolution in the South. It offered a lifeline to thousands of enslaved men, women, and their families, ignited fierce debates about loyalty and liberty, and revealed deep contradictions at the heart of a revolution that claimed to fight for freedom. In honor of the 250th anniversary of Lord Dunmore's Proclamation, we're taking a deeper look at the man behind it: John Murray, Fourth Earl of Dunmore, and at the Revolution in Virginia, which he helped fuel. Our guide for this exploration is Andrew Lawler, an award-winning journalist and author of A Perfect Frenzy: A Royal Governor, His Black Allies, and the Crisis that Spurred the American Revolution.

What if the American Revolution wasn't just a national uprising — but a global turning point? Prize-winning historian Richard Bell joins Matt Crawford to discuss his groundbreaking new book, The American Revolution and the Fate of the World. In this episode, Bell reframes the Revolution as an event that reverberated far beyond the thirteen colonies — reshaping empires, inspiring new movements for liberty, and transforming ideas about democracy itself. Richard and I explore the global consequences of America's founding struggle, the untold stories of those left out of its triumph, and how its ideals still echo — and clash — in the world today. Join the conversation about power, freedom, and the unfinished legacy of the Revolution.

Host Professor Robert Allison welcomes Dr. Kathryn P. Viens, public historian and scholar, to explore how local histories have shaped Americans' understanding of patriotism and the Revolution from the nineteenth century to today. Drawing from her essay “Mobs or the Martial Ideal? The Mutable Definition of Patriotism in Local Historical Narratives,” published in the online journal Remembering the American Revolution at 250, Viens discusses how community-based histories—often written by nineteenth-century antiquarians—both preserved and reframed the Revolution's memory.Together, Allison and Viens delve into the evolution of civic identity, how shifting cultural values influenced interpretations of the Revolution, and why local stories remain essential to the broader national narrative. This episode invites listeners to reconsider how patriotism has been defined, remembered, and reinterpreted in the generations since America's founding.https://journals.h-net.org/.../2025_Viens_mobs_martial_idealTell us what you think!

Think you know the story of the American Revolution? Think again. In this episode, acclaimed author and history professor Dr. Richard Bell joins the podcast to discuss his book "The American Revolution and the Fate of the World,” where he dismantles the myths and explores the shocking global story behind America's founding. Forget the simple tale of colonists vs. the British crown. Dr. Bell reveals the Revolution as a world war, a chaotic and contingent struggle whose outcome was never certain. We dive into the fascinating, often overlooked connections to China, India, and the Caribbean, and uncover the critical roles played by Native Americans, enslaved Africans, and European powers.  Dr. Richard Bell is a historian and professor specializing in early American history, currently serving as a Professor of History at the University of Maryland. Dr. Bell received his BA from the University of Cambridge and his PhD from Harvard University. He joined the University of Maryland in 2006, earned tenure in 2012, and was promoted to full professor in 2020. His teaching and research focus on American history between 1750 and 1877, with a particular emphasis on social history, slavery, and revolutionary transformation.   Get the Book: https://kingsbookstore.com/book/9780593719510   Richard Bell's Website: https://www.richard-bell.com Greg's Blog: http://zzs-blg.blogspot.com/ Pat's Substack: https://patcummings.substack.com/about   RichardBell#TheAmericanRevolutionandtheFateoftheWorld#AmericanRevolution#RevolutionaryWar#USHistory#WorldHistory#GlobalHistory#FoundingFathers#EarlyAmerica#MythvsHistory#Loyalists#250thAnniversary#Washington#KenBurns#ThomasJefferson#KingGeorgeIII#MollyBrant#HarryWashington#Hessians#MarquisdeLafayette#BenedictArnold#PeggyShippen#BaronvonSteuben#PatCummings#GregGodels#CFLF#ComingFromLeftField#Podcast#zzblog#mltoday

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE The American Revolution was a birth drenched in blood — a fight for freedom that left behind not just bodies, but echoes. Centuries later, those echoes still resonate. From the shadowed fields of Lexington and Concord to the haunted hills of Valley Forge, countless witnesses report seeing soldiers still marching, hearing drums in the night, and feeling the weight of a war that never truly ended. Author and historian Sam Baltrusis joins us to explore the ghosts of the American Revolution — the trapped souls, emotional imprints, and unhealed wounds still imprinted on the land. Are these hauntings mere legend, or are they proof that the cost of liberty was far greater than we ever imagined? The Revolution may have forged a nation… but for some, the battle never ended.

All Bones Considered: Laurel Hill Stories #080, part 1   The First Troop Philadelphia City Cavalry, or "First City Troop", was organized in 1774 as the Light Horse of the City of Philadelphia, often referred to as the Philadelphia Light Horse, one of the first patriotic military organizations established in the American Revolution. Although part of the National Guard system, it is a free-standing unit with its own uniforms and armory. It has served in virtually every war and skirmish ever entered by the United States. After a quarter century of service, it still proudly serves the American populace and the people of Philadelphia.

Title: Languaging in Hampton RoadsEpisode 20: How to Talk Like a Revolutionary: Be polite!Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue SalaskyDate: Oct. 31, 2025Length: 43 minutesPublication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each monthColonial Williamsburg, the restored Colonial capital (until 1780) of Virginia lies at the northwestern edge of Hampton Roads, part of a historic triangle with Yorktown and Jamestown. Since it opened as “the world's largest U.S. history museum” in the 1930s, it has been telling the story of the Founding Fathers and the American Revolution. To learn about all its tours, programs, activities and educational programs, go to www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.In this episode we explore how CW's use of 18th century language contributes to understanding the men and women who drove revolutionary change in the turbulent years before and after the American Revolution. We learn about the distinctive features of speech at the time of the Declaration of Independence, whose 250th anniversary is next year, 2026. We talk to Cathleene Hellier, senior historian at the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation, who authored the book, “18th Century English as a Second Language” (2011, out of print). She discusses the hundreds of primary sources she used to understand how language has changed over the past 250 years and its significance.  We shared the book with humanities scholar Clay Jenkinson, host of Listening to America (formerly The Thomas Jefferson Hour) on NPR, https://ltamerica.org/ and the country's best-known Thomas Jefferson impersonator. He details the textbook's relevant points and describes his own literature-based method of conveying the thoughts of the nation's third president.  CW's  Nation Builders program offers first-person interpretations of 18th century Virginians, both the well-known, such as Thomas Jefferson and George Washington, and the lesser-known, including a preacher, a teacher, and a barkeep, all of  whose lives impacted the community.We attended a Nation Builders performance at the Kimball Theatre, with Stephen Seals portraying James (Armistead) Lafayette, a formerly enslaved African-American who earned his freedom for his spying services for the Patriots during the Revolutionary War; and Robert Weathers, who represents George Wythe, a jurist, scholar, and signer of the Declaration of Independence. Hellier addresses the difficulties in portraying African-American history in the Colonial period and details the extensive research she's done into the language varieties of the time. She's a contributor to enslaved.org, a database of information regarding enslaved people worldwide. She touts the importance of the Virginia Gazette newspaper as a source (digitized copies are available on the CW website, www.colonialwilliamsburg.org.) We're reminded too of the newspaper resources collected by the Library of Virginia, https://www.lva.virginia.gov/collections/digital-collectionsAnd the Valentine Museum in Richmond has a rich repository of African-American history, https://thevalentine.org/Check out our website, languagingHR.wordpress.com.

Deborah Sampson's remarkable story comes to life in this week's America's Founding Series. Disguised as a man under the name "Robert Shurtliff," she secretly served in the Continental Army for nearly two years. She fought, bled, and risked death to achieve America's independence. From her humble beginnings as an indentured servant to her courageous service in the Revolutionary War, this episode reveals how Sampson's unwavering self-reliance and devotion to liberty made her one of America's first female soldiers and a true symbol of the nation's founding ideals. Discover the forgotten patriot who proved that the courage to defend freedom knows no gender. Episode Highlights A Woman at War: How Deborah Sampson disguised herself as "Robert Shurtliff" and fought bravely in the Continental Army during the American Revolution. Courage Under Fire: The incredible moment she removed a musket ball from her own leg to protect her secret identity and continue serving. Legacy of Liberty: How Paul Revere's support helped her secure a military pension, and why her story embodies America's enduring ideals of courage, freedom, and self-reliance.

In the darkest winter of the American Revolution, Thomas Paine wrote words that stirred a struggling people back to life. His essays, known as The American Crisis, called for unity and courage at a time when the cause of independence seemed doomed. Paine urged Americans to set aside their differences, stand together, and refuse to be ruled by fear.He warned that division and apathy would only prolong their suffering, and that freedom could only be won through shared sacrifice and steadfast resolve. His words were not lofty speeches, but direct, heartfelt appeals to farmers, soldiers, and citizens alike.In this episode, we explore how Paine's call to unity helped transform a desperate army into a nation bound by purpose. His reminder still rings true today: liberty survives only when people have the courage to stand together, even when the world around them seems ready to fall apart.

What did it take to end the War for Independence? When we think of the American Revolution's final chapter, we think of the Siege of Yorktown. Between September 28 and October 19, 1781, British forces endured a siege by the Franco-American forces that ultimately led to a triumphant Franco-American victory, British recognition of American independence, and the birth of a new nation. But the real story of the Yorktown victory is far more layered. It involved international alliances, enslaved people seeking freedom, and years of hardship. Today, we're revisiting the events of October 1781 as we revisit Episode 333. In this episode, we join three historians–Marcus Nevius, Ed Ayers, and Gretchen Johnson– who help us uncover: How American, French, and British forces converged at Yorktown The vital role of the French army and navy in securing victory And what this final battle looked like on the ground for soldiers, civilians, and Black Virginians alike Show Notes: https://www.benfranklinsworld.com/333 EPISODE OUTLINE00:00:00  Introduction00:03:59 Siege of Yorktown00:05:13 The British Military Approach00:08:50 The Importance of Virginia's Regions00:18:57 The Impact of War on Yorktown00:28:03 Dunmore's Proclamation and the British Strategy00:33:44 The British Invasion of Virginia00:48:00 Aftermath and Legacy00:55:49 ConclusionRECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODES

From the publisher:An astounding look at how America's founders—Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, Adams—regarded the issue of slavery as they drafted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. A daring and important work that ultimately reckons with the two great failures of America's founding: the failure to end slavery and the failure to avoid Indian removal.On the eve of the American Revolution, half a million enslaved African Americans were embedded in the North American population. The slave trade was flourishing, even as the thirteen colonies armed themselves to defend against the idea of being governed without consent. This paradox gave birth to what one of our most admired historians, Joseph J. Ellis, calls the “great contradiction”: How could a government that had been justified and founded on the principles articulated in the Declaration of Independence institutionalize slavery? How could it permit a tidal wave of western migration by settlers who understood the phrase “pursuit of happiness” to mean the pursuit of Indian lands?Joseph J. Ellis' website can be found at https://www.josephellishistorian.com/Information on his book can be found at https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/740318/the-great-contradiction-by-joseph-j-ellis/Support our show and Reach out and Read of Tampa Bay at https://patreon.com/axelbankhistoryAxelbankHistory.com is designed by https://www.ellieclairedesigns.com/Axelbank Reports History and Today" can be found on social media at https://twitter.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://instagram.com/axelbankhistoryhttps://facebook.com/axelbankhistory

In the winter of 1776, when the American Revolution seemed on the verge of collapse, a voice rose from the darkness. Thomas Paine, armed only with ink and conviction, wrote words that would reignite a nation's spirit: “These are the times that try men's souls.” His pamphlet, The American Crisis, was not written for comfort. It was written to remind a weary people that freedom demands perseverance.Paine believed liberty was not a gift to be enjoyed, but a cause to be earned. His words gave Washington's soldiers the courage to march through snow and hunger toward an uncertain victory.In this episode, we explore how Paine's message of endurance still speaks to us today. The idea that freedom requires sacrifice remains as true now as it was on that freezing night in 1776. Paine's challenge endures: liberty survives only through the strength of those who refuse to quit.

We get a preview of Ken Burns' "The American Revolution" from his co-directors. Plus, Teacher Talk brings us an ode to teachers everywhere.

Though the Revolutionary War didn't officially end until September 1783 with the signing of the Treaty of Paris, a key turning point in the war for independence occurred six years earlier in a small corner of today's New York state. The Battle of Saratoga stretched out from September 19 until October 7, 1777, and marked the first time the British Empire had been forced to surrender. British General John Burgoyne had stretched his forces too thin in marching down from Canada with the intent of capturing Albany and wound up with huge losses in his army of nearly 7,000. His defeat at the hands of Major General Horatio Gates and General Benedict Arnold greatly raised American hopes to gain independence and convinced France to come to the colonials' aid. The story of how the British surrender came about is told at Saratoga National Historical Park near today's Stillwater, New York. To help us better understand the battles, we're joined today by Lauren Roberts, the historian at Saratoga County, New York, and Traveler Contributing Editor Kim O'Connell, who recently visited the historical park.

Life during the Revolutionary War was more than military strategy; there were plenty of battles to be fought at home. Betsy Ambler was a young teenager during the turbulent years, and through her records and letters, we can see the conflict though a perspective that has been little examined. We also interview Sarah Botstein, the co-director (with Ken Burns) of the new documentary The American Revolution, premiering on PBS on November 16th, 2026. This series brings forward voices that have been under-represented - as well as those figures that we think we already know- giving us a more complete picture of American life during the birth of our nation. Our subject Betsy Ambler is voiced by Maya Hawke during this six-part series. Registration is now open for our June 3-7, 2026 Field Trip to Chicago!

As the nation marks 250 years since the American Revolution, a new Boston Public Library exhibit looks at some local acts of resistance beyond the shot heard around the world.

In this episode of America's Founding Series, Professor Nick Giordano tells the remarkable true story of Peter Francisco, the orphaned immigrant who became one of the most legendary heroes of the American Revolution. Known as Washington's One-Man Army, Francisco's extraordinary courage, strength, and devotion to liberty helped shape America's fight for independence. From his mysterious beginnings on a Virginia wharf to his legendary feats on the battlefield, this episode reveals how Francisco's life proves that courage and duty, not privilege or aristocracy, define what it means to be an American. Episode Highlights: The Mystery Boy of Virginia: Discover how a five-year-old Portuguese orphan was found alone on a colonial wharf and rose to become one of George Washington's fiercest soldiers. The Battles that Made a Legend: Relive Francisco's heroic feats at Brandywine, Germantown, Monmouth, and Camden, including the incredible moment he carried an 1,100-pound cannon off the battlefield. Legacy of Courage and Duty: Learn how Francisco's story reminds us that America's strength comes from ordinary people with extraordinary resolve.

‘No occurrence in the course of the war has given me more painful sensations.' This was George Washington's response when the idea of his becoming 'King' was put to him.But what if he had? What would an American royalty look like? Who would have succeeded Washington? And why did this not happen?Don is joined for this episode by Michael Hattem, author of The Memory of '76: The Revolution in American History' and ‘Past and Prologue: Politics and Memory in the American Revolution'.Edited by Aidan Lonergan.

Have you ever noticed how conversations about the American Revolution often center on great battles, founding documents, and famous statesmen? What if, instead, we explored that world through the eyes—and the hands—of everyday people who shaped it through art? Zara Anishanslin, Associate Professor of History and Art History at the University of Delaware and Director of its Museum Studies and Public Engagement Program, joins us to uncover the hidden world of artists, artisans, and makers who painted, stitched, and crafted the Revolution into being. Drawing from her book The Painter's Fire: A Forgotten History of the Artists Who Championed the American Revolution, Zara helps us see how creativity and craftsmanship tell a fuller—and more human—story of America's founding.

The Oligarchic Motives Behind the "No Kings" Protest. Gaius and Germanicus, speaking from Londinium, discuss the contemporary "No Kings" protest occurring across the American Empire, noting the young people involved are protesting the outcome and subsequent actions taken following the 2024 democratic vote. While Gaius sees the protest as amateurish, Germanicus finds it rooted in deep ignorance. Germanicus emphasizes that kingship is profoundly alien to both the Roman experience (which was founded on the overthrow of kings) and the American experience, pointing out that even a Roman emperor would never call himself a king. The true American Revolution was a rebellion against Parliament, not King George III. The element that is truly sinister, however, is not the youthful protestors but the oligarchy that created the enterprise. This elite class, which feels entitled to rule and controls the ruling institutions, is threatened by the rise of "big men" (like Crassus or Pompey) supported by populism. The "No Kings" metaphor is an absurd and ahistorical tactic used by the threatened oligarchy to quash this popular movement. The hosts then turn to debating the necessity of moving the American Empire's capital, as DC's usefulness is outworn. 1582 OTHO
