S5E24 Amanda Nagel - US Army Command and General Staff College

We return to the CGSC well with an in-person, in-the-studio chat with Amanda Nagel, the pride of Strasburg, North Dakota, and currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Military History at the US Army Command and General Staff College at Ft.Leavenworth, Kansas. Amanda was in Statesboro to deliver the keynote address for the opening of Brian's fantastic exhibit More Than A Name in the Georgia Southern University Library, which documents the service of African American soldiers from Bulloch County, Georgia, who served in the First World War (it was a great event!). As an expert on African Americans in the US military, Amanda was perfect for the occasion. Her first book, "He thinks he is a soldier": Race, Empire, and the United States, 1898-1926, will be published by the University of Virginia Press.

It was great to have Amanda with us at Georgia Southern - join us for a fab chat about Lawrence Welk, high jumping, making the move to Mississippi, African Americans in the Army in the early 20th century, teaching in professional military education, jazz oral histories, and more!

Shout-out to J. Rieger and Co. in Kansas City - Amanda swears by their burnt ends!
