John Dickinson: The Reluctant Revolutionary

He was one of the most influential political writers of the American Revolution, helped shape the argument against British taxation, drafted major documents for the Continental Congress, and helped create both of America’s first two systems of government. Yet when the colonies decided to declare their independence, he refused to support it. For that decision, he paid a steep price that can still be felt today.  Learn more about John Dickinson, the reluctant revolutionary on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The Rise and Fall and Rise and Fall and Rise of Deng Xiaoping

For decades, China was transformed by revolution, war, and the radical policies of Mao Zedong.  After Mao’s death, however, power eventually fell to a man who had twice been purged, stripped of his positions, and sent into political exile.  He would never hold China’s highest formal office, yet he became its most powerful leader, set the country on a dramatically different course, and was responsible for the China we know today.

The Battle of Antietam

September 17, 1862, was the bloodiest day in the history of the United States. In just 12 hours, 22,726 people were killed, wounded, or went missing just outside of Sharpsburg, Maryland, in one of the largest battles of the US Civil War. Despite ending in a draw, the Union's ability to hold off the Confederates was a major win, with significant political ramifications that helped shift the course of the conflict.
