This Labor Day, we wanted to look at a piece of US history that has arguably done more to shape our nation than earlier "founding documents."
On Today's Show:
Kermit Roosevelt III, professor of constitutional law at the University of Pennsylvania Law School, a former law clerk to Supreme Court Justice David Souter, author of The Nation That Never Was: Reconstructing America’s Story (University of Chicago Press, 2022) – and a great-great-grandson to Pres. Teddy Roosevelt – offers a reinterpretation of U.S. history that places Lincoln's Gettysburg Address as our true founding document.
