Stand Watie was the only Native American Confederate Brigadier General and the last of all Confederate Generals to surrender. From the Cherokee Nation to Civil War battlefields, his story mixes loyalty, rebellion, and survival in a divided America.

Us against the redcoats. That's how we often think of the American Revolution. In Ken Burns' latest film, scheduled to drop later this month on PBS, the acclaimed documentarian takes on that simplistic notion of the nation's founding and many others. The revolution was actually a civil war, Burns says, one that pitted Americans, including indigenous and Black folk, against each other as much as the British. So, what were the divisions among the inhabitants of the British colonies and their neighbors? How did they flare into war? How did a fledgling nation with no central government or standing army defeat the world's largest empire? And what were the contributions of indigenous and Black people and women? Philip C. Mead, PhD '12, former chief historian and head curator of the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia, weighs in.

Philip Sheridan was one of the key figures who helped turn the tide of the American Civil War. Known for his relentless drive and signature cry of “Ride, Sheridan, ride!”, he played crucial roles in major campaigns like the Shenandoah Valley and Appomattox, where his cavalry cut off Lee's final escape. But Sheridan's story doesn't end with the war. From Reconstruction to his controversial campaigns against Native American tribes, his legacy remains one of the most complex in American military history.

It's an animal-news heavy What's Old Is New Again, with a carve-out for The Fenian Brotherhood. Also, Dick Cheatham goes to war. The gang reviews their US History education, and, as always, Jo knows the most. All that to say, this episode of everyone's favorite Civil War propaganda piece has way too much sexual violence, and we would rather talk about nearly anything else.

For generations, the teaching of American history has often glossed over the important role Native communities have played in shaping the nation, but contemporary historians are reframing the conversation. In a discussion that spans five centuries, scholar Ned Blackhawk illuminates how the history of the Indigenous peoples of North America is an essential component to telling a more complete American story—and how, despite many obstacles, Native communities have persevered.Recorded on January 10, 2024

In part two of this interview, historian Peter Kuznick — co-author (with Oliver Stone) of The Untold History of the United States — joins Barry Stevens to reflect on the USA's lost chances for peace. He traces a throughline from the sidelining of VP Henry Wallace to the aggressive Cold War policies of Eisenhower and Reagan, who, while avoiding outright nuclear war, escalated militarism to unprecedented levels. Today's panic over China, Kuznick argues, revives that same dangerous playbook — but with even fewer constraints and less public awareness.
