America250 Part 1: 1776 — Beyond the Founding Fathers


Listen Later

As America marks its 250th birthday, we begin our three-part America250 series by looking back at what daily life was really like in 1776.

Historian and bestselling author Kenneth C. Davis takes us beyond the familiar Founding Fathers narrative — exploring the lives of farmers, enslaved people, and Native American nations.

Plus, the radical ideals behind the Declaration of Independence, the contradictions built into the country's founding, and why an honest look at the past still matters today.
