It’s kind of Civil War days right now. Presidential candidate Nikki Haley choked on the cause. Former President Trump is being disqualified from state ballots based on an amendment intended to keep Confederate leaders from holding federal offices and charged with another offense derived from the Civil War.

This hour: Are we in the Civil War era? And what would it mean if we were? Plus, what another civil war could look like.

GUESTS: 
Caroline Janney: Professor of history of American Civil War and the director of the NauCenter for Civil War History at the University of Virginia
Gerard Magliocca: Samuel R. Rosen Professor at the Indiana University Robert H. McKinney School of Law
Stephen Marche: Novelist and essayist; his most recent book is The Next Civil War: Dispatches from the American Future
Clint Smith: Staff writer at The Atlantic and author of How the Word is Passed: A Reckoning with the History of Slavery Across America

The Colin McEnroe Show is public radio’s most eclectic, eccentric weekday program. The best way to understand us is through the subjects we tackle: Neanderthals, tambourines, handshakes, the Iliad, snacks, ringtones, punk rock, Occam’s razor, Rasputin, houseflies, zippers. Are you sensing a pattern? If so, you should probably be in treatment. On Fridays, we try to stop thinking about what kind of ringtones Neanderthals would want to have and convene a panel called The Nose for an informal roundtable about the week in culture.
