Extremism

The United States was born in the flames of violence and rebellion. Extremism has always been a part of who we are as a nation. In this hour, we focus on multiple flashpoints in our nation's history, and the ways in which our Presidents have reacted to extinguish - and sometimes, to fan - the flames of extremism. What can we learn about extremism from our past - and how to avoid it in the future?

We the People

Our Constitution starts with the words "We The People." Every U.S. President has faced the question of who, exactly, is included in this soaring phrase. This hour examines Presidential decision-making in the face of the turning points for many citizens who have been left out of our story - the enslaved, Indigenous Americans, women, and immigrants.
