Heather Cox Richardson’s civics lesson on how government by the people under the Constitution should work. If you are wondering why people need to work together for our democracy and why rallies like the one on Saturday, April 5, are worth participating in (Handsoff2025.com), listen to the end of the podcast. Perhaps this is her most important podcast for League members thus far . You can go to last 10- 20 minutes.

Her daily letters to Americans are available for free on her website of that name if you prefer to read. She reminds folks that though you will be asked for a credit card, you can just ignore that. The point is to get as many people as possible involved in what’s going on. It’s so tempting to ignore the daily onslaughts to our democracy,  but our voices are being heard as witnessed by the election results yesterday. She also identifies trustworthy news sources and reporters. In a few words, she explains how using the Alien Enemies Act to justify removal of immigrants is not deportation because there is no war with Venezuela and no connection whatsoever with El Salvador. 
Please spread the awareness of her remarkable service documenting and contextualizing American history in the making.
