About this episode
Shays’ Rebellion has long been taught as a dangerous uprising, one that risked shaking the newly founded United States of America. But by tracing the events from mounting grievances to the march on the Springfield Armory, one might argue it was as a disciplined, community-driven movement born out of economic injustice...
Our guest for today’s episode is Dr. Daniel Bullen, author of the book ‘Daniel Shays's Honorable Rebellion’. His other works include ‘The Dangers of Passion: The Transcendental Friendship of Ralph Waldo Emerson and Margaret Fuller’ & ‘The Love Lives of the Artists: Five Stories of Creative Intimacy.’
Edited by Tim Arstall. Produced by Tomos Delargy. Senior Producer was Freddy Chick.
