The History That Doesn’t Suck (HTDS) team--Prof. Greg Jackson, Josh Beatty, and Cielle Salazar--chat it up about the main causes of the American Revolution (HTDS episodes 1-5), covering everything from George Washington's miserable day at Fort Necessity, to bad tax plans, and “salt-water” tea. Next, Greg and Prof. Eric Hinderaker (distinguished professor of history at the University of Utah and author of Boston’s Massacre) get into the nitty-gritty of that fateful, cold night in March 1770. Was it a massacre? Or just an “incident?” And why should we care about it today?
