On this second installment of our Constitutional Conversations series, we're exploring how the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments (known as the Civil War Amendments) fundamentally reshaped the constitution by abolishing slavery, defining birthright citizenship, and guaranteeing voting rights. Join History Colorado's Associate Curator of Black History Acoma Gaither and State Historians Council members Dr. William Wei and Dr. Claire Garcia for a riveting conversation breaking down the amendments' historic successes while tackling the hard truths about their limitations and the systemic failings.
