Episode Description

In this episode of America’s Founding Series, Professor Nicholas Giordano tells the extraordinary but often overlooked story of Robert Morris & Haym Salomon: The Men Who Financed American Freedom.

From Salomon’s imprisonment by the British to the desperate scramble for $20,000 that saved the Yorktown campaign, this episode reveals how their financial sacrifices helped secure American independence. Without Morris and Salomon, the Revolution may have collapsed before victory was ever possible.

Episode Description

In this episode of America’s Founding Series, Professor Giordano explores the life and legacy of James Wilson, one of the most influential yet overlooked Founding Fathers. As one of only six men to sign both the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution, Wilson played a pivotal role in shaping the core structures of American government, including the Electoral College, the independent judiciary, and the concept of a single, energetic executive. Drawing from his Enlightenment roots and deep belief in popular sovereignty, Wilson’s vision helped define the Constitution as a government of the people. His warnings, insights, and contributions are just as relevant today as they were in 1787.

Episode Highlights:

  • How Phillis Wheatley’s poetry reached and influenced George Washington during the height of the Revolutionary War
  • The remarkable meeting between Wheatley and Benjamin Franklin in London
  • Why Wheatley’s legacy challenges current narratives about race, liberty, and the American founding
