PATREON PREVIEW- Thaddeus Stevens with Ross Hetrick

Perhaps it's safe to say that most modern Americans might have heard of Thad prior to the movie "Lincoln" and, since that movie's release, many more know of him from Tommy Lee Jones' colorful performance of the man. Well, Mr. Jones was not exaggerating the character of Thaddeus Stevens. What an interesting and colorful man he truly was! And, we would argue, the father of modern American society. This is a MUST LISTEN!    Our guest, Ross Hetrick, is head of the Thaddeus Steven Society     From their website: "The Thaddeus Stevens Society is a non-profit group started in 1999 to promote the memory of Thaddeus Stevens, the most powerful congressman during and after the Civil War and a champion of freedom and equality. We hold seminars, have trips to historic places associated with Stevens and support efforts to restore sites related to Stevens."
