Today, we’re diving into Pennsylvania—the second state to ratify the U.S. Constitution! Join us as we explore this historically rich state, from its ancient human habitation at Meadowcroft Rockshelter to William Penn's revolutionary "Frame of Government," which championed religious freedom and democratic ideals.
We’ll discuss Pennsylvania’s role in early colonial history, the impact of the Lenape and Susquehannock peoples, and the fascinating development of the state as a center for innovation, education, and governance. Hear how Pennsylvania was a pivotal location for the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Confederation, and the drafting of the U.S. Constitution.
Stick around as we uncover fascinating tidbits about Quakers and Puritans, the founding of the University of Pennsylvania, and Pennsylvania's ongoing influence on the nation's story.
There’s so much history here, we could dedicate an entire series—but for now, we’ll give you the highlights.
Thank You for listening and Stay curious,
Kat & William
