But in this episode, the tables are turned: I’m in the hot seat, and Lepore has some questions. Hard ones.This is, easily, the toughest interview on my book so far. Lepore isn’t quibbling over my solutions or pointing out a contrary study — what she challenges are the premises, epistemology, and meta-structure that form the foundation of my book, and much of my work.

Room for DiscussionJill Lepore: Revisiting American HistoryJill Lepore is Professor of American History at Harvard University and a journalist at The New Yorker. She specialises in American history, specifically early American history and undocumented history. During our interview with Lepore, we will focus on history as a subject and the implications it has had for society today. How do politicians like Donald Trump use history? How has the way we remember history affected minorities? Apart from this, the questions of whether these truths are self-evident and how the lack of these truths has changed America will be explored extensively during the session.2019-12-021h 03CAFE InsiderStay Tuned Bonus 11/14: Jill LeporeIn this bonus clip from Stay Tuned, Jill Lepore discusses Harvard Law Professor and former Faculty Dean Ronald Sullivan Jr., what we can learn today from famed lawyer Clarence Darrow, and her personal essay, "The Lingering of Loss."

Jill Lepore ist ein Star unter den Historikern Amerikas. Mit ihrer "Geschichte der Vereinigten Staaten" legt sie einen Tausendseiter vor, der, wie Paul Ingendaay in der F.A.Z. schreibt, „tatsächlich Seite um Seite als spannende, zusammenhängende Story lesbar ist, obwohl ihre zentralen Fragen einen dichten theoretischen Gehalt haben“.

PORTRAITSLopsided with Jill LeporeIf you were a man with property in the 19th century, there's a good chance you sat for a portrait at some point. If you were an enslaved person, a Native American, or an immigrant, there's a good chance you did not. Jill Lepore addresses this lopsidedness, or asymmetry, of history as she shares her own efforts to excavate the stories of people overlooked in the official account. Sometimes this means tracking down a portrait.

She’s the kind of history teacher everyone wishes they’d had, able to effortlessly connect the events and themes of American history to make sense of our past and clarify our present. “The American Revolution did not begin in 1775 and it didn’t end when the war was over,” Lepore writes. This is a conversation about those revolutions. But more than that, it’s a conversation about who we are as a country, and how that self-de...2019-01-031h 35At LibertyJill Lepore on the Construction of American CitizenshipAlmost 250 years after the adoption of the Declaration of the Independence, debates about founding principles like equality, rights, and representation are as fraught as ever.

The Nation PodcastsWe Have a Problem With White Men: They Support Trump—Kai Wright, plus Jill Lepore on Trump and History and Michael Kazin on Hubert Humphrey62 per cent of white men voted for Trump, 31 per cent for Clinton. Kai Wright has our analysis--he’s host of WNYC’s podcast The United States of Anxiety, and he’s also a columnist for The Nation. It’s easy to get confused by the crosscurrents of misogyny and racism and xenophobia, he argues; they are not discrete issues, but rather “the interlocking tools of white men’s minority rule.”

The GistCampaign-funded opinion polls box lawmakers in on every little issue, argues historian Jill Lepore.On The Gist, after all of that, not a single senator changed his or her vote to back (or stop) Kavanaugh.
In the interview, Jill Lepore’s new book focuses in part on the marginalized groups forgotten by other American histories. It also denounces the polling industry born in the ’30s, which turned politics into business even as it ignored black Americans, slowing their march for civil rights. Lepore’s book is These Truths: A History of the United States.

Think Again - a Big Think PodcastJill Lepore (Historian) – Why America keeps going to piecesAs Alexander Hamilton put it, the American Experiment puts to the test the question “of whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice…or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force.”
This question surfaces throughout Jill Lepore’s brilliant new history of the United States: These Truths. Our conversation took place during the live-streamed, virally-watched Senate Judiciary hearing on allegations that nominee Brett Kavanaugh committed sexual assault while in high school. Jill comments on this historical moment and much more.
