Civil War Talk Radio - February 14th, 2024

Harold Holzer, author of Brought Forth on this Continent: Abraham Lincoln and American Immigration Gerry's Monologue - This is Gerry Prokopowicz, with Civil War Talk Radio,...Nearly 10 million immigrants have upended the demography, culture and voting patterns of the nation, especially in its teeming urban centers. In the wake of such overwhelming change, resistance to immigration and immigrants metastasized, determined not only to restrict foreigners from entering the country, but to disenfranchise, demonize and occasionally terrorize those who have already arrived, settled and earned citizenship here. Now in recent years, I mean 1830 to 1860, and the rest of what I just said isn't quoted from 2024 website. It's from Harold Holzer's newest book 'Brought Forth on this Continent: Abraham Lincoln and American Immigration.' We'll talk with the author tonight on Civil War Talk Radio.
