Episode 221: The New Yorker Gets it Wrong on Reconstruction

https://mcclanahanacademy.com https://brionmcclanahan.com/support http://learntruehistory.com Adam Gopnik at The New Yorker has written one of the most stupid (but typical) pieces on Reconstruction. The presentism, the historical revisionism, and the downright laughable assertions are so cringe worthy, I had to podcast about it. It also makes for a great introduction to my newest course at https://mcclanahanacademy.com Reconstruction and Recreation. This episode was too fun to put together.
