À propos de ce contenu audio
In this episode of Blood and Union, we trace America’s political unraveling through the 1850s — a decade of collapsing parties, rising movements, and moral awakening. From the death of the Whigs and the ascent of the Democrats, to the birth of the Free Soil and Know-Nothing movements, we uncover how fear, faith, and ideology reshaped the nation long before the first shots of the Civil War.
Discover how the Whigs’ dream of compromise gave way to the Democrats’ illusion of unity, how Free Soilers and reformers gave freedom new meaning, and how Abraham Lincoln rose from political loss to moral leadership. This is the story of how America’s two-party system fractured — and how the struggle to define freedom itself remade the Republic.
