In just two minutes, Abraham Lincoln delivered a speech that changed the soul of a nation.
In this episode of The United States of Grit, Walker and Bracken break down the power, purpose, and enduring grit behind The Gettysburg Address—delivered on a cold Pennsylvania battlefield in 1863. As cannons still echoed across the country, Lincoln stood before the living and the dead to remind Americans what they were fighting for: a new birth of freedom.
🔥 Why did Lincoln keep it so short?
🔥 What did he mean by “government of the people, by the people, for the people”?
🔥 And how do those 272 words still speak to us today?
We unpack the forgotten context, the real emotion, and the gritty resolve Lincoln showed in the darkest chapter of American history. This episode isn’t just about a speech—it’s about the fire that keeps a republic alive.
Share it. Remember it. And let freedom ring.
