The Real Heirs of the Republic (🇺🇸 US-UK🇬🇧 Edition)

This special extended episode pairs two interconnected essays — The Inheritance They Wish They Had and The Heritage I Actually Have — to confront the counterfeit heritage movement now claiming dominion over American identity. Cord Dunneagin traces his own lineage through Plymouth survivors, Jamestown patrons, and the kings and lawmakers of medieval Wales — not as a bid for entitlement, but as a foil to the myth that ancestry confers political sovereignty.A republic has no landlords. That was the point of the form.First, the fantasy. Then, the facts.🎧 Find Civics Unhinged on your favorite platform:* Apple Podcasts (accepts PayPal if available in your country)* Spotify (accepts PayPal if available in your country)* Pocket Casts* 📡 Prefer RSS feed?
