The Story Behind the Song Trump Danced to at His Inauguration: Battle Hymn of the Republic


Listen Later

🎵You may have noticed one song making more than one appearance at Donald Trump's Inauguration on January 20, 2025. The Battle Hymn of the Republic was sung at his inaugural ceremony and was also the song he danced to at his Inaugural Balls. This isn't the first time Donald Trump has chosen a powerful tune to accompany his event(s). But what is the full story behind the Battle Hymn of the Republic? The history goes back much further from the Civil War and his rooted in centuries of fighting for religious freedoms and independence. I hope you enjoy this rich history as much as I do.🎵🎶 Roots Music History | Music Journalist & YouTube Podcaster 🎶0:00-3:00 Introduction3:00-6:00 Domination Splits6:00-9:22 Samuel Stennet & Religious Freedom in 1727-17389:22-10:33 The Promised Land & We’ll March Around Jerusalem Morph & Adapt10:33-13:43 Stith Meade’s 1807 Hymn Grace Reviving in the Soul 13:43-15:37 Canaan’s Happy Shore | Early 1800s15:37-18:36 William Walker Publishes ‘Say Brothers, Will You Meet Us’ 183518:36-25:43 John Brown’s Fight to Free the Slaves25:43-28:23 ‘John Brown’s Body’ Song28:23-30:06 Enter: Julia Ward Howe30:06-32:00 Atlantic Monthly Original Publication of Battle Hymn of the Republic32:00-43:26 Julia’s Diary Recalling Writing The Song43:26-46:37 Conclusion🎸Stories of Divine Music Intervention 🎸*Member of the US Press Association* 🇺🇸On ROOTS, we dig up the roots that grew your favorite music.
