Join hosts EJ Russo, Dr. Jason Weixelbaum, and special guest experts as they discuss historical topics relevant to today's political climate. We speak with bestselling authors, Pulitzer Prize winners, and up-and-coming scholars to help you make sense out of what's going on. ​This project came about as part of Elusive Films' larger plans to put this history on the big screen, so stay tuned! We hope you'll join us.
