In this episode, we’re sharing a conversation with Jeffrey Rosen and constitutional scholar Akhil Reed Amar of Yale Law School about his new book, Born Equal: Remaking America’s Constitution, 1840–1920, which explores the transformative amendments that redefined freedom, equality, and voting rights in the post–Civil War era.
