First released in 2022, this episode revisits an often overlooked influence on the American founding. Professor Robert James Miller explores how tribal governments and Indigenous political thought helped shape the ideas of the Founding generation and left lasting marks on the U.S. Constitution. Moderated by Myles V. Link, the conversation invites listeners to view the Constitution not only through a European lens, but also as a document informed by the political traditions of the first peoples of this land.
