Hi everyone. Here is the next installment of the The Peculiar Institution, our ongoing series on the history of slavery and the leadup to the US Civil War. Thanks to all my subscribers for helping me keep this thing going. I know I’ve gotten in a bit over my head on this topic, and I appreciate you guys sticking with me.
To my unpaid subscribers getting this email: Have you thought of subscribing, but don’t want to jump in when we’re on part 13 of a long series? Well, I have good news. As you can see, we have audio versions of every essay and post, all available on a podcast feed wherever you get your podcasts. That means you don’t have to go back and read the 150 or so pages of this series to catch up, you can listen to each installment like a chapter of an audiobook. There are also other subscribers-only episodes and discussions, so give it a shot! Thanks!
