Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States, is remembered not only for leading the nation through the Great Depression and World War II, but also as a powerful symbol of perseverance for people with disabilities. Diagnosed with polio at the age of 39, Roosevelt was left permanently paralyzed from the waist down—yet he rose to the highest office in the land. In this inspiring video, we explore how FDR's physical limitations did not stop him from becoming one of the most influential leaders in American history. Through the use of leg braces, wheelchairs, and the support of aides, he maintained a commanding public presence. But behind the scenes, it was his resilience, determination, and deep compassion—shaped in part by his own experiences with disability—that truly defined his leadership. Roosevelt's legacy reminds us that disability is not a disqualifier for greatness. His story is a beacon of hope for anyone facing adversity, showing that with courage and resolve, it's possible to overcome obstacles and leave a lasting impact on the world.
In this episode of the Anglotopia podcast, host Jonathan Thomas interviews military historian John Maass about his book "From Trenton to Yorktown: The Five Decisive Turning Points of the American Revolution." Maass, who works at the National Army Museum, discusses why he selected these specific turning points and how they altered the trajectory of the war. The conversation explores Washington's desperate gamble at Trenton when his army was at its lowest point, the truth behind the Valley Forge mythology, the critical importance of the Saratoga victory in securing French support, and how British strategic errors and logistical failures contributed to their ultimate defeat. Maass provides fresh insights into how these key moments secured American independence while highlighting the shared British-American history before the revolution. Links "From Trenton to Yorktown" book (Osprey Publishing) - Amazon "From Trenton to Yorktown" book (Osprey Publishing) - Bookshop.org National Museum of the US Army website and programs National Army Museum Events Join the Friends of Anglotopia Club to Get Early Podcast Access Key Takeaways Maass defines turning points as "battles, campaigns, seizures, and other military events that are decisive and result in significant change that alters the trajectory of the conflict toward the war's outcome." Washington's victories at Trenton and Princeton, though involving relatively small forces, were crucial when the Continental Army was at its lowest point and restored morale. Valley Forge wasn't just about Baron von Steuben's training—it was where Washington solidified his political position, improved relations with Congress, and created a more disciplined army. The Saratoga campaign's British failure resulted from divided command structures and severe logistical challenges in North American terrain. The French alliance after Saratoga was essential for American victory, particularly the French Navy's contribution which culminated in the Battle of the Capes before Yorktown. British strategic mistakes included dividing their forces, underestimating American resolve, and prioritizing the West Indies over the American colonies after French involvement. Sound Bites "I wanted to do something interpretive that kind of pulled together a lot of existing scholarship… and that was, I intended it to be provocative in that I wanted to literally provoke discussion." "When Washington decided a few days before Christmas that he was going to cross the Delaware River with his army… he was arguably at the lowest point in the war, professionally himself, but also militarily." "Washington knew that his army was the embodiment of the cause of independence. It wasn't Congress. It wasn't some mythical 'the people.' It wasn't the spirit of '76, but the revolution really was alive, not well, in his army." "Up until Valley Forge, he was definitely the general. And I think after that, he was also the commander in chief." "I don't think the outcome would have been favorable if there was no French intervention at all, period, end of story." "Really the most important moment in the entire Yorktown campaign… was the British and French naval battle off the coast of the mouth of the Chesapeake called the Battle of the Capes… the most important naval battle in early American history. And not a single American was involved in it."

Best-Selling Author & Distinguished Carter G. Woodson book award presented to exemplary books written for children and young people each year at the NCSS Annual Conference.My Show looks to the final day of Jubilee Remembrances 60th Anniversary 2025 in the South this Week. I consider it a Privilege to cover the True Foot Soldiers who were physically THERE during the Events that Changed History in American Civil Rights to All.My Guest is author Robert H. Mayer author of the book "In the Name of Emmett Till"The Movie "Till" premiered in the Fall 2022. It was a Box-Office Hit!Emmett Till Antilynching Act is a United States landmark federal law which makes lynching a federal hate crime and signed into law on March 29, 2022, by President Joe Biden. The bill was named after 14-year-old Emmett Till, who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955, sparking national and international outrage.Children played a significant role in Birmingham's crucial civil rights struggle, and this stirring history of the movement, with many photos, news reports, and quotes from all sides, emphasizes the connections between the young people's power and that of the big leaders. Martin Luther King called Birmingham the most segregated city in America, and his Letter from Birmingham Jail is quoted at length. But when the adults' protest lost momentum, the leaders' decision to call on young people galvanized the movement--Hazel RochmanRobert H. Mayer is the award-winning author of When the Children Marched: The Birmingham Civil Rights Movement and the editor of The Civil Rights Act of 1964. As a teacher, Mayer's passion continues to be making history relevant and accessible to young people. His time spent in Jackson, Canton, and McComb, Mississippi, as well as meeting scholars and activists integral to the civil rights movement, fueled the desire to write In the Name of Emmett Till. He lives in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, with his wife Jan, where he writes, teaches, and tutors youth in a local middle school.The 1955 murder of Emmett Till in Mississippi is widely remembered as one of the most horrible lynching's in American history. African American children old enough that year to be aware personally felt the terror of Till's murder. These children, however, would rise up against the culture that made Till's death possible. Over the next decade, from the violent Woolworth's lunch-counter sit-ins in Jackson to the school walkouts of McComb, the young people of Mississippi picketed, boycotted, organized, spoke out, and marched, determined to reveal the vulnerability of black bodies and the ugly nature of the world they lived in. These children changed that world.© 2025 Building Abundant Success!!2025 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

The promised Seed of Eve was destined from the beginning of the world to crush the head of the one who brought misery to Earth. That Seed is traced through the miraculous births of Isaac, Samuel and ultimately Immanuel — the Messiah, God with us. Amidst human failings and spiritual decline, God's sovereign plan unfolds, revealing a trajectory from Eden to eternity, where the glory of His presence is restored. This study of Genesis 21, 1Samuel 1–2 and Matthew 1 invites us to trust the Creator's promises, discern His ways, and anticipate the coming of the King who will establish His eternal kingdom.
NLS annotation Anne Boleyn & Elizabeth I: the mother and daughter who changed history DB124509 Author: Borman, Tracy Reading Time: 8 hours, 53 minutes Read by: Tracy Borman Subjects: World History and Affairs, Biography of Heads of State and Political Figures, Women “One of the most extraordinary mother and daughter stories of all time – Anne Boleyn, the most famous of Henry VIII’s wives and her daughter Elizabeth, the ‘Virgin Queen’. Anne Boleyn is a subject of enduring fascination. By far the most famous of Henry VIII’s six wives, she has inspired books, documentaries and films, and is the subject of intense debate even today, almost 500 years after her violent death. For the most part, she is considered in the context of her relationship with Tudor England’s much-married monarch. Dramatic though this story is, of even greater interest – and significance – is the relationship between Anne and her daughter, the future Elizabeth I. Elizabeth was less than three years old when her mother was executed. Given that she could have held precious few memories of Anne, it is often assumed that her mother exerted little influence over her. But this is both inaccurate and misleading. Elizabeth knew that she had to be discreet about Anne, but there is compelling evidence that her mother exerted a profound influence on her character, beliefs and reign. Even during Henry’s lifetime, Elizabeth dared to express her sympathy for her late mother by secretly wearing Anne’s famous ‘A’ pendant when she sat for a painting with her father and siblings. Piecing together evidence from original documents and artefacts, this book tells the story of Anne Boleyn’s relationship with, and influence over her daughter Elizabeth. In so doing, it sheds new light on two of the most famous and influential women in history.”– From publisher. Unrated. Commercial audiobook. London : Audible Studios, 2023.

Christmas is almost here. During this season, we celebrate the birth of a man who lived more than 2000 years ago. Many other people are also celebrated. However, none has stood the test of time while at the same time being as widely celebrated as Christ. Why so? Unlike the others, we go out of our way to celebrate someone who, by all accounts, seemed quite insignificant at the time of his death. Looking into history as told in the gospels, we read of how Christ confessed that he had nowhere to lay his head (Matthew 8:20).Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/kuza--3674993/support.

Best-Selling Author & Distinguished Carter G. Woodson book award presented to exemplary books written for children and young people each year at the NCSS Annual Conference.My Show looks to the Jubilee Remembrances in the South this Week. I consider it a Privilege to cover the True Foot Soldiers who were physically THERE during the Events that Changed History in American Civil Rights to All.My Guest is author Robert H. Mayer author of the book "In the Name of Emmett Till"The Movie "Till" premiered in the Fall 2022. It was a Box-Office Hit!Emmett Till Antilynching Act is a United States landmark federal law which makes lynching a federal hate crime and signed into law on March 29, 2022, by President Joe Biden. The bill was named after 14-year-old Emmett Till, who was lynched in Mississippi in 1955, sparking national and international outrage.Children played a significant role in Birmingham's crucial civil rights struggle, and this stirring history of the movement, with many photos, news reports, and quotes from all sides, emphasizes the connections between the young people's power and that of the big leaders. Martin Luther King called Birmingham the most segregated city in America, and his Letter from Birmingham Jail is quoted at length. But when the adults' protest lost momentum, the leaders' decision to call on young people galvanized the movement--Hazel RochmanRobert H. Mayer is the award-winning author of When the Children Marched: The Birmingham Civil Rights Movement and the editor of The Civil Rights Act of 1964. As a teacher, Mayer's passion continues to be making history relevant and accessible to young people. His time spent in Jackson, Canton, and McComb, Mississippi, as well as meeting scholars and activists integral to the civil rights movement, fueled the desire to write In the Name of Emmett Till. He lives in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, with his wife Jan, where he writes, teaches, and tutors youth in a local middle school.The 1955 murder of Emmett Till in Mississippi is widely remembered as one of the most horrible lynching's in American history. African American children old enough that year to be aware personally felt the terror of Till's murder. These children, however, would rise up against the culture that made Till's death possible. Over the next decade, from the violent Woolworth's lunch-counter sit-ins in Jackson to the school walkouts of McComb, the young people of Mississippi picketed, boycotted, organized, spoke out, and marched, determined to reveal the vulnerability of black bodies and the ugly nature of the world they lived in. These children changed that world.© 2023 Building Abundant Success!!2023 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

In the summer of 1940, the skies over Britain filled with the sounds as of engines and gunfire, as the battle of Britain saw the RAF and Luftwaffe go head-to-head in a fight for air dominance. For the British pilots, the objective could not have been more critical – protect their nation from the threat of Nazi invasion. But were the British pilots really the plucky underdogs in this fight? And could Germany have launched an invasion if they had won the air battle over Britain? In the first episode of this five-part series on the greatest battles of WW2, Rachel Dinning explores those questions and more with military historian James Holland. James Holland is a military historian and the author of several books on the Second World War including The Battle of Britain: Five Months that Changed History. He's the co-founder of the Chalke History Festival - which runs from 24-30 June this year. Find out more about the festival's extensive programme of history talks and events at chalkefestival.com.
