YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

To Abraham Lincoln, the American Revolution was “a living legacy to which we are bound,” one that Lincoln used to build a popular antislavery politics, our staff writer Jake Lundberg said last year.

As part of our special issue marking 250 years since the nation’s founding, Lundberg explored why Lincoln “might be the figure best suited to teach us how to tell the story of the Revolution and live the story of the Revolution.”
