In Part 4 of our live roundtable, we dive into the Civil War and Reconstruction in a way most people never hear — not as a clean “good guys vs bad guys” story, but as a collision of federal power, state sovereignty, economics, tariffs, expansion, and politics.
We debate:
• Were northern states also restricting Black life and voting?
• Was Lincoln primarily driven by morality… or maintaining the Union and building a centralized superpower?
• Was secession “treason,” or a legal theory that was never adjudicated?
• How Reconstruction functioned as America’s first progressive era
• Why modern politicians couldn’t write a Federalist Paper if their life depended on it
This is the kind of conversation that forces you to think — and yes, it gets spicy.
