Equal in America


This blog is a reflection on the meaning of “equal” in US History. We propose to examine how the concept of equality developed in American politics and political philosophy theory, how its legal meaning has played and continues to play out in the courts and society, and how equality has been used as the cornerstone of directly conflicting arguments and worldviews.

We also propose to illustrate these questions by telling compelling, humorous, historical, folk, biographical and other stories from US History.

We hope you’ll join the conversation.
