Roundtable on Michael Kazin's "A Godly Hero"

October 26, 2006

This roundtable event discussed Michael Kazin's A Godly Hero: The Life of William Jennings Bryan, which attempts to replace the image of Bryan as an anti-intellectual racist tied to fundamentalist religion with that of a populist orator and statesman who profoundly influenced the Democratic Party with his brand of faith-based liberalism.

This event was cosponsored by the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace, and World Affairs, American Studies Department, Department of Government, and Department of History.
