Jefferson Cowie on Freedom’s Dominion -

Synopsis: In Freedom’s Dominion, historian Jefferson Cowie traces the American freedom which is typically associated with the fight of the oppressed for a better world. But for centuries, whenever the federal government intervened on behalf of nonwhite people, many white Americans fought back in the name of freedom—their freedom to dominate others.

Join us when a prize-winning historian chronicles a sinister idea of freedom: white Americans’ freedom to oppress others and their fight against the government that got in their way, on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.
