Roots of TodayThe War Before the War EffortWe recently passed the 84th anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the attack that finally dragged the United States into the second world war. When I was a kid, I remember it being something that most people observed every December 7th, much like the media still takes note each September 11th to mark the anniversary of the terrorist attacks against the twin towers in New York and the Pentagon in Washington D.C.When we look back on World War II in the Pacific, we tend to remember it in shorthand. Pearl Harbor. Then—almost im...

Roots of TodayHappy Birthday, Devil DogsThe United States Marine Corps originates in a congressional decision taken amid crisis and improvisation. In November 1775—months after Lexington and Concord, and with the siege of Boston grinding on—the Second Continental Congress resolved to raise two battalions of “American Marines.” Their creation was not an abstract institutional design exercise; it was a response to urgent strategic needs: securing powder and ordnance, protecting nascent Continental warships, and enabling amphibious action against British positions.From their first major operation at New Providence in the Bahamas (March 1776) to service with the Continental Army in New Jersey, the Continental Marines...

Roots of TodayLord Dunmore's Proclamation and the Ethiopian RegimentToday we journey back to November 7, 1775, and a dramatic, startling document known as Dunmore’s Proclamation. We'll explore the life of its issuer, John Murray, 4th Earl of Dunmore, the events that led him to issue it, and the astonishing—and tragic—fate of the men and women who answered its call.The proclamation had immediate and longer-term impacts. In Virginia, the slave-owning class was galvanized into deeper resistance; the idea of armed Black men fighting for the Crown radicalized the social order. Across the wider war, it set a precedent for British policy—most notably the 1779 Philipsb...

Roots of TodayThe March to Independence: King George III Addresses Parliament in October 1775.Next year marks the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, when the Continental Congress of the United British colonies in North America had the audacity to do the unthinkable – declare their independence from the British Crown and announce to the world the birth of a new nation.To properly celebrate that world-changing event, the Roots of Today podcast is going to feature a continuing special series of episodes that mark some of the events from that era, until we reach the Semiquincentennial celebration. So what was going on in October, 1775 you might ask? This is...

Roots of TodayAntifa: From Weimar Streets to American HeadlinesBefore “Antifa” became a flashpoint in American politics, it was born on the streets of 1930s Berlin. In this episode of Roots of Today, we trace Antifa’s journey from its origins as Antifaschistische Aktion under Germany’s Communist Party, through the rise of the black bloc tactic in postwar Europe, to its presence in U.S. protest culture — from Seattle’s WTO demonstrations and Occupy Wall Street to the Portland clashes and the Trump era.We’ll unpack the crucial question: is Antifa an organization, a movement, or an idea? And why does understanding its history matter so much...

Roots of TodayStupidity in Action: Government ShutdownsAs the clock strikes midnight tonight, the federal government could close its doors once again. For millions of Americans, that means missed paychecks, shuttered offices, and a grinding halt to the daily functions of the world’s largest democracy. But shutdowns aren’t just about budgets. They are about power, leverage, and political theater.And if history teaches us anything, it’s that shutdowns rarely shrink government. Instead, they expose the fault lines over who controls government, how it’s weaponized, and whether the myth of ‘small versus big government’ still holds any weight in our modern politics...

Along the way, we’ll revisit the lines, gestures, and gaffes that shaped elections and defined how Americans saw their leaders.Because debates are more than performances — they are snapshots of democracy — I’ve also included a “Further Reading” section for each era we cover.

Roots of TodayA Story of Political Assassinations: James Garfield, William McKinley, and Huey LongThe assassination of Charlie Kirk while speaking to students on a Utah college campus had brought the topic of political violence to the forefront of our national discourse. How his murder will affect the political fortunes of both parties is something that will be better discussed after years have passed and historians have the benefit of hindsight on their side. But if his memorial service, one that drew over 100,000 people to attend, and one where speaker after speaker vowed to expand the mission that Kirk founded, is any indication, it appears the short-term result will favor the political fortunes...

The question is this: Is it possible to fill the void left behind when someone like Charlie Kirk is assassinated?In this episode, we look at the assassinations of two Civil Rights icons, Medgar Evars and Robert F. Kennedy, and ask the question, "What if?" How would things have been different if they had lived to continue their work?

Roots of TodayThe Posse Comitatus Act of 1878: Can Trump Legally Send the Military to Fight Crime?In early September 2025, President Donald Trump announced that he would deploy federal troops into several major U.S. cities to quell unrest — even if governors objected.The announcement immediately set off a wave of debate. Critics pointed to the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, a law meant to prevent the use of the Army as a domestic police force. Supporters countered with the Insurrection Act of 1807, a much older law that presidents have invoked many times to justify troop deployments at home.So here’s the central question for us today: Is Trump doing something unprecedented — or is...

Roots of TodayThe War in Ukraine: Vladimir Putin and the Ghosts of World War 2In 2014, Russia invaded and then annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine. It became clear that Russia faced no real consequences for that violation of Ukrainian sovereignty, so in 2022 Vladamir Putin followed up with a full-scale invasion of the country. Putin claimed the action was necessary to “denazify” Ukraine and to defend the Russian-speaking populations in the border regions. These claims have been widely rejected by the West.Nevertheless, what we are witnessing is the continuation of events that have a long historical context.

Roots of TodayThe Myth of True History: Why Trump’s War with the Smithsonian is a Fool’s Errand that Promotes IgnoranceOn August 12th, 2025, the White House sent a formal letter to Smithsonian Secretary Lonnie G. Bunch III, ordering a comprehensive review of exhibits, educational materials, and even social-media posts at eight museums. The goal, according to the letter, was to ensure all content aligns with the President’s March executive order to present “uplifting” and “unifying” history and to remove “divisive or ideologically driven” language.Historians and museum professionals have been quick to respond. The American Historical Association and the Organization of American Historians warned in March that the new directives risk turning public history into “ideological litmus tests” ra...

Roots of TodayThe Fight Over the Census: Can the President Decide Who Gets Counted and Who Gets Left Out?In the United States, political power has always been counted—literally. From the moment the framers dipped their quills into ink and drafted Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution, they established a system in which representation would not be apportioned by guesswork or political bargaining alone, but by an “actual enumeration” every ten years.Behind the clean arithmetic of apportionment lurks an untidy truth: deciding who counts means deciding whose political voice matters. From the original Constitution’s compromise that treated enslaved people as “three-fifths” of a person, to the exclusion of Native Americans “not taxed,” to modern battles o...

With Gaëlle Fisher

Before World War II, Bukovina was a region marked by multiconfessional coexistence and ruled by the Habsburg Empire (1774-1918) and then by Romania (1918-1940). Two among Bukovina’s population groups, the “ethnic” Germans and the Askhenazi Jews, left the region as a result of the World War and the Holocaust. Thousands of the former were “resettled” in Germany, while a great number of the latter who had survived the persecutions immigrated to Israel. In this epis...
