Confederate Audacity
from Curious Roots · host Michelle McCrary
In the final bonus episode, we trace the roots of the current unrest in state legislatures across the country to the politics born out of the Reconstruction era. We discuss the Tennessee state legislature in particular and how it compares to what happened to the Georgia state legislature under Reconstruction. Image of the Tennessee State Capitol Building is courtesy of The Tennessee State Library and Archives. This image of the building was taken during the Civil War when the city of Nashville was under Union control and was the first Confederate capitol building to fall to the Union Army in February 1862.
