Guest: Professor Richard Carwardine. Carwardine analyzes the war's conclusion and Lincoln's Second Inaugural Address, which framed the conflict as divine judgment for the shared offense of slavery. He notes that Lincoln intended a Reconstruction based on charity and "absence of malice," rather than punishment. By 1865, Lincoln's views had evolved to support citizenship for African American veterans, though his assassination left the specific blueprint for the nation's reintegration unfinished and uncertain.1910 BEECHER HOME, SOUTHBURY, CONN.

Listen in to gain insight into Lisa's experience at the Teacher Innovation Studio (a program facilitated by Matt) and how it transformed her thinking as an educator. Lisa shares the unique challenge she worked on that led her to become a Teacher Innovation Champion in 2022: “How can I help students regulate their emotions to be prepared for learning throughout the school day by using plickers and a choice board?” Lisa talks about how the data from students' plickers influenced the decisions she made throughout her creative project. She speaks on how she was taught teacher creativity and design thinking in the Teacher Innovation Studio, highlighting the personal challenges she faced with not feeling creative as an educator. “That was my biggest takeaway from this program was flipping the script on my thinking about creativity and how I view it. Now, I see that everything I do is creative. Every time I step into my classroom, I am creatively solving a problem.”  – Lisa Saunders Lisa then shares the valuable lessons she learned from being in a teacher cohort and how she's helping her students navigate their emotions and become better problem-solvers. Lisa's Tips for Teachers and Parents: Just go for it! Try something new and if it fails, that's okay. Failure is good! Know that you are creative. Trust yourself and focus on the good.

General Rochambeau and his 5,000 French troops marched this trail to come to the aid of George Washington's Patriot Army in the Revolutionary War. Together, the French and the Patriots won the last major military action of the war – the Siege at Yorktown. After that, the British went back to England and the colonialists were able to draft the new U.S. Constitution and declare freedom. The logistics of feeding, transporting and preparing campsites in the 1700s were incredibly complex. And why were the French helping the Patriots anyway? In Part 1, you'll hear answers to those questions and much more from Revolutionary War expert historian Dr. Robert Selig and Southbury, CT Town Historian John Dwyer, whose region the marchers passed through.

Here is my first official sermon delivered at the United Church of Christ in Southbury, CT. The text we looked at today was the letter to the Ephesians chapter 3 verses 1-12.

In the 1930s, bigotry was alive and well in the United States – a perfect setting for supporters of the rise of Adolf Hitler in Germany to establish a U.S.-based support system. As part of that effort, Hitler's German-American supporters bought land in various strategic locations around the country, including in New York State, Pennsylvania, New Jersey – and Southbury, Connecticut (on land now known as the Fox Hollow Preserve, off Sleepy Hill Road). At these sites, they developed camps – for adults and youth – to raise the flag of the swastika and to march and sing the songs of the Third Reich. Listen as Southbury Town Historian John Dwyer recounts the fight between the 2,500-strong community (in those days) and the Bund as the organization was called.
