Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Three hundred years ago, the Royal Governor of Maryland issued a charter for the city of Annapolis. The document sparked intense political battles and, in turns out, a case of historical fraud that was only discovered several months ago. Join Kojo as we explore the little-known and fascinating history of a document considered by some to be a framework for municipal democracy in the early United States.
Guests
- Edward Papenfuse Maryland State Archivist and Commissioner of Land Patents
