Proud that @nehgov has been funding @BackStoryRadio since it first began 12 years ago. As they release the final episode of the freely-available podcast today, the appropriately titled “A History of Finales," let’s take a look at the groundbreaking work they’ve done. [thread]

Shout out to @BackStoryRadio and @WhatsRaySaying for a great podcast on African Americans and American Indians in US history! Listening to podcasts on a walk or run is a great way to exercise your mind and body during #socialdistancing

Eager to share something I've been working on for a couple of years: @NewAmericanHist. It pulls together several projects I'm leading, from @bunkhistory + @americanpano to @FuturePastShow. Our whole team humbly hopes it's a new way to understand America: newamericanhistory.org

Want some food for thought? We've curated Thanksgiving articles from over the years, from a @BackStoryRadio episode covering many holiday traditions, to Philip Deloria's new essay relating the First Thanksgiving to American Indian sovereignty issues today.

#OTD in 1863 Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. At the time it got decidedly mixed reviews. One newspaper called it “silly, flat and dishwatery.” Our @BackStoryRadio hosts explored the meaning of the speech in this 2015 episode. Give it a listen. loom.ly/MhaZEP4
