Podcast: Here's Where It Gets Interesting
Published On: Wed Dec 28 2022
Description: On today’s episode of Here’s Where It Gets Interesting, Sharon speaks with presidential historian Alexis Coe, who talks about her goal as a historian to tell the whole story. We have a tendency to regard many of our U.S. Presidents as heroes, illuminating the ways in which they shaped our nation for the good, that we often gloss over their missteps. Historians piece together facts and details to fill in the gaps of the bigger picture, but how often are our interpretations colored by our own lived experiences and perceptions? Listen in to learn some fun–and maybe not so fun–facts about our first president, George Washington. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
