The Bulwark Daily · Eddie Glaude: Don't Let MAGA Own America's 250th Anniversary · 26 May 2026 podcast

Right.

We can't live a completely historical life.

Right.

Otherwise, we would be paralyzed.

But I think what's important, though, is during these milestone anniversaries, what we've how can I put this?

What we choose not to remember often exposes the limits of our conception of justice.

What we choose to forget often shines a glaring light on the gaping holes in our ideas of justice.

So what am I saying?

In these milestone anniversaries, every last one of them happens in the midst of extraordinary, a kind of flaring up of the contradiction.

1876 is the collapse of freaking reconstruction.

By the end of the 19th century, over 53,000 black people will be dead.

1926 is the decade of the Klan.

In the midst of that, you have the red summer of 1919, you have all sorts of violence that's happening across the South and in the Midwest and in the Northeast, right?

So the moment in which we're trying to tell a story about our shared sense of value, there's this amazingly violent effort to discipline the roiling chaos underneath the appeal to consensus.

And certain people are bearing the brunt of it.

Certain people are taking it on the chin and having to bury their dead because of it.
