This week our guest is Professor Andrew M. Schocket. In the earliest days of the republic it was said that all men were created equal, but few witnessed the concept in practice. While the civic role of non-white men have been studied at length, what about that of women and children? On this episode we discuss the legal obligations and civic duties of women and children in the young United States. For more information visit www.allthingsliberty.com.

E37: Andrew Schocket: Who Mattered In Early America?

Why do we refer to the men who founded the United States as the “founding fathers?” Why do we choose to remember the American Revolution as a glorious event that had almost universal, colonial support when in fact, the Revolution’s events were bloody, violent, and divisive? Today, we explore our memory of the American Revolution and how our memory of the event and its participants evolved with Andrew Schocket, author of Fighting over the Founders: How We Remember the American Revolution.
