Episode 5: Nov. 2-8 - a podcast by NBC12

In this episode of How We Got Here – Tales from the Lewis and Clark expedition that you didn’t learn in school: how American myth-making dominates the way their story is taught. Plus, the political process to elect the first – and only – President of the Confederate States of America. Why Jefferson Davis was considered a moderate choice. And one of the worst plane crashes in Virginia history is a little-known story that changed the way the United States Army transported troops around the country, as dozens died less than a mile from the runway at Byrd Field.
