About this listen
In this episode, we travel to New York City to explore the violent legacy of the New York City Draft Riots. What began as outrage over the Enrollment Act erupted into days of chaos, destruction, and racial violence that shook the city during the American Civil War. Today, the very object tied to that moment - the draft wheel - rests inside the New York Historical Society. Join us as we stand before this unassuming artifact and uncover the dark history it helped set in motion.
