(Part 2) | Our conversation about the 1969 riots at the Stonewall Inn continues with an account of how the tension ratcheted up that night -- and how the story of that night has been shared and contested over the decades since.Join our America250 newsletter community!

| 6/23/26 | ![]() Stonewall: The Breaking Point (Part 1) | For the twenty-fifth installment of “50 Weeks That Shaped America” we go to June 1969, and New York City’s Greenwich Village. Police raids on the Stonewall Inn, one of the main gay bar’s in NYC, were fairly common. But for a number of reasons, on the night of June 28th, patrons had finally had enough. They pushed back on the police, a crowd formed, someone (maybe?) threw a brick, and a key moment in the gay rights movement was sparked. We talk about the larger context of activism that set the stage for Stonewall, what went down that night — and how the story of Stonewall is contested in ways that reveal a lot about how movements grow and shift.Join our America250 newsletter community!

| 6/16/26 | ![]() Little Bighorn: The U.S. Conquers The West (Part 1) | For the twenty-fourth installment of “50 Weeks That Shaped America” we go to the Montana Territory in the spring of 1876. General George Custer (and his cinnamon-scented hair) have been sent to the area to defeat the Plains Indians. But at the Battle Of Little Bighorn (aka Custer’s Last Stand) things would go awry. Over two episodes, we discuss the post-Civil-War Westward expansion; how Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse mounted an Indian defense; and how a bloody defeat was spun into a military legend.

Along the way, some made huge riches and others met tragedy. Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss how railroads started to transform the country.Join our America250 newsletter community!

| 5/12/26 | ![]() Silent Majority: The Kent State Massacre (Part One) | For the nineteenth installment of “50 Weeks That Shaped America” we talk about a fateful week in the spring of 1970, when the anti-Vietnam movement was confronted by a conservative backlash. We discuss the tragedy at Kent State University in Ohio, when four students were killed by National Guard. In the wake of the tragedy, many were shocked but lots of Americans felt that anti-War protesters had gone too far. Richard Nixon would dub this coalition the "silent majortity," and days later in New York City they would be on the streets themselves.Join our America250 newsletter community!

Today, a story from 1951 about the efforts to dismantle it -- starting with a group of students walking out of their school over unfair conditions.Jody, NIki, and Kellie discuss how this effort mirrored some of the elements of The Marshall Plan in Europe — and why US attempts to support Latin America generally fell short.Join our America250 newsletter community!
