The Aftermath: The Mountain Meadows Massacre

New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Sarah Barringer Gordon about the Mountain Meadows Massacre. Sally, as she’s more commonly known, is a Professor of Constitutional Law and History at the University of Pennsylvania. Having recently published an award winning article about the Mountain Meadows Massacre in the Journal of the Early Republic with co-author Jan Shipps, Sally explains the context and helps us understand the unique moment in American history leading up to this tragic event. Afterward, Producer Clayton Early and Fact Checker Chris Smith stop by to reflect and revisit the verdict with Rebecca.
