Another week and another episode! This week Professor Kate Masur, associate professor of history at Northwestern University, speaks to Cambridge PhD student Jeanine Quené about her paper "State Sovereignty and Migration Before Reconstruction" and its place within her wider work. Professor Masur discusses the relationship between poor laws and both African-American and immigrant populations in the United States, conceptions of region in debates over states rights, and the importance of analysing the Antebellum period in order to better understand the significance of Reconstruction. If that somehow isn't enough for you, we also hear about the history of Ohio, the midwestern anti-slavery movement, and the second best Rock Opera of the 1970's. If you want to know what the first best Rock Opera of the 1970's is, or if you have any questions, suggestions or feedback, get in touch via @camericanist on Twitter or [email protected]. Spread the word, and thanks for listening! See you next week!
