Welcome to the Our Patriots Podcast! The podcast shines a light on Revolutionary War Patriots who have been featured in DAR's award-winning American Spirit magazine, narrated by President General Denise Doring VanBuren.

Well-known Patriots such as Artemas Ward, Mercy Otis Warren, John Jay and Nathanael Green will be familiar to many, but listeners may be introduced to new names, such as Windsor Fry and Hannah Tillman. The stories of these Patriots are so important to remember and honor—and the DAR hopes to make them known to a broader audience through this medium.
