Insurrection is the biweekly podcast that explores the vast history of violent acts of rebellion against the government since its inception as the United States of America. Each episode delves into the settings, details, and consequences of an insurrection. Insurrections may be driven by an unresponsive government, failed promises, labor abuses, political nullification, and/or America’s Original Sin: slavery. These rebellious events are not rare, but are common enough that the history of Insurrection is a microcosm of the history of the United States.
