About this listen
In this episode, of The Civil Weird Podcast, we uncover the ambitions of George W. Bickley and his secretive Knights of the Golden Circle, who aimed to create a pro-slavery empire spanning the U.S., Cuba, Mexico, and beyond. Bickley’s society recruited thousands with dreams of expanding Southern influence through rebellion and conquest, but their plans ultimately unraveled. We’ll explore the KGC’s rituals, failed plots, and the lasting mystery around their goals, as well as how their vision of a “Golden Circle” faded into the shadows of Civil War history. Join us to explore the ambition, anarchy, and the Southern empire that never was. Let’s make it Civil Weird!
