This Dave In History with Dave Jay

The 14th Amendment (Congrats, You're a Citizen)


Listen Later

On July 28, 1868 the 14th amendment to the constitution of the United States of America was ratified. After the Civil War ended slavery, the former Confederate states were like "Ok, they aren't slaves, BUT THEY AIN'T CITIZENS!", so the 14th amendment fixed that (legally, at least).

On This Dave In History comedian Dave Jay and a rotating cast of dummies talk history. Don't fact check us.
