Description


Ulysses S. Grant entered the presidency as a celebrated general, yet his true challenges began in office. In this episode of Presidents Unplugged, we explore Grant’s complex and often underestimated time in the White House. He championed Reconstruction and civil rights for freedmen while grappling with corruption within his cabinet. Grant sought to heal a divided nation through decisive policy and perseverance rather than military force. Despite the scandals surrounding his cabinet, he remained a figure of integrity, committed to equality and national unity. Join us as we uncover the quiet strength and lasting legacy of one of America’s most overlooked presidents.
