When we asked our audience for their opinions on Ken Burns, we had no idea the passionate debate we would ignite. Some called Ken Burns a proponent of the Lost Cause. Others claimed Ken Burns has an agenda akin to the 1619 Project. Clearly, there was a lot of disagreement. The impact of his work was never in dispute, and many listeners were major fans even if they had detractions, but the conversation itself was entirely fascinating.
We decided to break down the discussion of these passionate history buffs before delving into the second episode of the series, which covers military innovations, the Battle of Shiloh, and the inner politics of the Union.
