Join Zeckthar as he gets into the meat of the Great Scouring. This week we will discuss Gulliman's reforms of the empire, his mighty script known as the Codex Astartes and most importantly, his concept of the second founding. These reforms would be even mightier than terran 42's Roman Marian Reforms, and change the history of the imperium of mankind forever. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ian-crombie0/support
In our first episode on the Adeptus Astartes we start with a look at birth of the modern Space marine chapter; The Codex Astartes and the Second Founding. We dig into what is involved in founding a Space Marine Chapter and what organisational structure each Codex Chapter and its companies. We examine the iconic arms, armour, and vehicles of the Astartes. We then turn from creation to maintenance and look at the recruitment processes of established chapters including the trials, Gene-Seed, and conditioning that is common to all chapters. We then turn our attention to the most recent innovation, the Primaris Space Marines and the Ultima Founding, focusing on the three classes: Awoken, Indoctrinated, and Ascended. We close out with a look at some of the more famous Chapters and their deviation from the codex Astartes. Support Us Buy from Element Games. Want more content? Join our Patreon.

Kerri Miller's Friday conversation is about a novel set in the waning days of the Civil War. It tells the story of a group of slaves turned soldiers, who must grapple with resistance in a country that's changing. Scholar Eric Foner spent decades researching that era of American history. In his 2019 book, “The Second Founding,” he writes about how the war and the reconstruction that followed forever altered our constitution. Enjoy this 2019 discussion between Miller and Foner, as an appetizer to the coming show. Use the audio player above to listen to the conversation.

Original Air Date 1/5/2021 Today we take a look at the often-overlooked decade of Reconstruction in the wake of the Civil War. After hundreds of years of slavery, Reconstruction was a brief moment of relative democracy and equality before the white power structure reasserted itself and instated the policies that would be known as "Jim Crow Laws" which would last another 80 years.

This show is the third in a series of three programs I am doing on the National Constitution Center's Constitution Drafting Project. Part II, with Caroline Fredrickson – representing Team Progressive – aired two weeks ago. Part I, with Timothy Sandefur of Team Libertarian, re-aired last week. We have already heard from the libertarian and progressive teams in the National Constitution Center's drafting project. Now it's time to hear from the lead of "Team Conservative." Professor Ilan Wurman of Arizona State's Sandra Day O'Connor Law School will be representing his colleague's revisions to America's founding document.Wurman is author of a number of books and articles on the judicial philosophy of originalism, which holds that the Constitution should be interpreted according to the framers' original intent. His most recent book is an introduction to the 14th amendment called "The Second Founding." In addition to several nuts-and-bolts changes, Team Conservative took an interesting approach of altering the Constitution so as to emphasize the upholding of the common good. These days, there is much talk about the elusive common good, and roughly as many opinions about it as there are American citizens.Can we unite around certain principles that will lead to the flourishing of the common good without eroding the individual liberties enshrined in the original Constitution?
Join Professor Jeffrey Sachs and Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Eric Foner, as they discuss Foner's latest novel, The Second Founding: How the Civil War and Reconstruction Remade the Constitution.Together, they discuss this transformative era in American history, and how the 13th, 14th, and 15th amendments remain strong tools for achieving the American ideal of equality, if only we will take them up.

Every 4th of July, we commemorate the signing of the Declaration of Independence – some 250 years ago – but the proclamation that all men are created equal was not truly realized until another proclamation was made some 90 years later, on September 22, 1863, by President Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln may not have been one of the original founders of the United States of America, but his influence on our nation's trajectory rivals even George Washington's. More books have been written about Lincoln than any other American, and his actions as President permanently altered the very definition of American liberty. In this sense, Lincoln can be said to have presided over a second founding moment – of almost equal importance to the first in 1776. John Cribb has written the latest in a long line of books about Lincoln. Old Abe: A Novel distinguishes itself as one of the few historical novels – accurately retelling the story of Lincoln's last five years leading up to his untimely demise. Cribb joined me to unpack the complex and fascinating legacy of Abraham Lincoln, from his election to the Presidency, through the tumultuous war that almost tore the country apart, to his assassination in 1865.Of course, we will discuss the role Lincoln played in ending the “peculiar institution,” which the founders themselves had neglected to solve in their own struggle for emancipation. Can this help explain why celebrating the 4th of July has become less popular in recent years? I'll ask John how “Old Abe” can help us recover a sense of patriotism in every generation.Finally, we'll discuss the murkier questions of Lincoln's legacy, including the growth of federal power and the questionable suspension of Habeas Corpus during the Civil War.
John Cribb on Abraham Lincoln's Last Five Years
On April 14, 2021, the Federalist Society's Philadelphia Lawyers Chapter hosted Prof. Ilan Wurman to discuss his new book, The Second Founding: Originalism and the Fourteenth Amendment.The Fourteenth Amendment is now over 150 years old. The Supreme Court has long rejected interpreting that Amendment with its original meaning. But what would an originalist interpretation of the Amendment look like? Would it be unworkable for modern problems? In this talk, Ilan Wurman, an associate professor at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University, argues not only that we should reclaim the original meaning of the Fourteenth Amendment, but that doing so would lead to many desirable and surprising results. Professor Wurman argues that the privileges or immunities clause is not, like many originalists claim, a fundamental rights provision, but is instead an antidiscrimination provision. The implications for incorporation, economic liberty, school desegregation, and gay rights may surprise you.

Discussions and lectures by the best and brightest thinkers from Boston University
On this episode of ST, we revisit a discussion that first aired back in October. At that time, we spoke with Eric Foner, the DeWitt Clinton Professor Emeritus of History at Columbia University. A Pulitzer Prize–winning scholar and one of the most prominent historians in the United States, Foner joined us to chat about his then-new book, "The Second Founding: How the Civil War and Reconstruction Remade the Constitution." This work -- which was named an Amazon Best Book of 2019, and which will appear in paperback in August -- remains an engaging and timely history of the constitutional changes that essentially built equality into our nation's foundational document. The book also explains and explores how these equality-for-all guarantees have been tried and tested over time.
Many of us associate the Statue of Liberty with the poem mounted on her pedestal: “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free.” The monument has become a symbol of immigration. What fewer of us know is that Lady Liberty was originally conceived as a tribute to the abolition of slavery. In fact, what we find as we look into history is that our country's immigration policy is closely intertwined with the end of Reconstruction and rise of Jim Crow. In this episode, we tell the story of one undocumented immigrant—Carlos Aguirre-Venegas—and trace the origins of a little-known law that's now being used to prosecute tens of thousands of people who crossed the border, separate some from their children, and lock them away in federal prisons. - Jim Elkin is a National Park Ranger at Statue of Liberty National Monument - Eric Foner is author of The Second Founding - Kelly Lytle Hernandez is a professor of History, African American Studies, and Urban Planning at UCLA and author of City of Inmates Hosted by Kai Wright. Reported by Seth Freed Wessler, in partnership with Type Investigations. Produced and edited by Christopher Werth. For more on Seth's reporting about Carlos Aguirre-Venegas and the privately-run prisons used exclusively to incarcerate non-citizens convicted of crimes, see his 2016 investigation in The Nation.

In this episode, I interview Pulitzer Prize winning historian, Professor Eric Foner, about his book "The Second Founding", an amazingly timely history of the constitutional changes that built equality into the nation’s foundation and how those guarantees have been shaken over time.
Last year, the California Attorney General held a tense press conference at a tiny elementary school in the one working class, black neighborhood of the mostly wealthy and white Marin County. His office had concluded that the local district "knowingly and intentionally" maintained a segregated school, violating the 14th amendment. He ordered them to fix it, but for local officials and families, the path forward remains unclear, as is the question: what does "equal protection" mean? - Eric Foner is author of The Second Founding Hosted by Kai Wright. Reported by Marianne McCune.

Pultizer Prize-winning historian Eric Foner tells the story of the battle to inscribe equality into the Constitution. Foner traces the arc of the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution—the “Reconstruction amendments”—from their dramatic pre-Civil War origins to today, detailing how they changed our founding document and shaped American history. He sits down with National Constitution Center President Jeffrey Rosen. This program was presented in conjunction with the Center’s exhibit Civil War and Reconstruction: The Battle for Freedom and Equality. Questions or comments about the podcast?

National Constitution Center Manager of Exhibition Development, Sarah Winski, and Exhibition Developer Elena Popchock discussed the museum's new permanent exhibition, Civil War and Reconstruction: The Battle for Freedom and Equality which explores the ‘Second Founding' and the writing, passage and impact of the Reconstruction Amendments. In this first exhibition in the country to address the Constitutional battles over slavery that led to the Civil War and how the Constitution was changed to reflect the ideal of the Declaration of Independence, original drafts and documents, interactive displays and historic objects tell the story of the period before the war and of the Reconstruction years. Ms Winski described how they approached the exhibit to explain the passage of the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments and their immediate effect – African Americans not just voting, but voting in strong numbers and achieving elected offices across the states. She noted that the effect was especially felt in the North, where they may have been free, but they were barred from voting. They spoke about the gradual whittling of the rights granted through poll taxes and other ways to impede voting, the rise of Jim Crow laws and the formation of the Ku Klux Klan when Reconstruction ended. They told us how to get the most from the Museum and all of its exhibits, through education guides for teachers and parents to Town Hall lectures and discussions.

Welcome to Episode 34 of the Second Founding. He's Ken, that's Steve and I'm Mark and why this episode is titled Serenity Now... I am as stumpted as you are. However, we got a good show for you this fortnight. We start with all three members recounting details of games played. We follow up with talk about the forthcoming Apocolypse release from GW. So sit back and enjoy!
Welcome back to the Second Founding. All three hosts reconveine for another year of 40k goodness. We start out with the hobby progress, have a word of Borer segment on painting black. Have a rather large announcement, talk goals and the Adepticon 40k Friendly!
Introducing the Dreadnought sized edition of the Second Founding! Now with 50% more piss and vinegar.. Thats right folks! A 3 hour episode for the same price as the usual 2 hour version! Why? We like hearing ourselves talk is the obvious first thing that comes to mind.. While that is mostly true we pack this episode full to the gills. Rants on Chaos? Check... Alternative miniatures for the imperials amoung us? Check... An interview with the Mighty Chris Borer? Got that too! And we cap it off with Muggins of Fresh Coast 40k talking foodhammer. So sit back, plug in your headphones, for this is the Second Founding!
This is the Second Founding. We would like to welcome you to the inaugrial episode of the Second Founding, our very own 40k podcast. A few minor equipment setbacks plagued us early on but we persisted in our goal of mediocracy.
