About this listen
In the ninth episode of our second 10-part special season on U.S. Presidents, we explore the story of Rutherford B. Hayes, the 19th president of the United States. Rising from Civil War service to the presidency, Hayes won one of the most disputed elections in American history. His compromise to gain office brought stability but ended Reconstruction, paving the way for Jim Crow laws in the South. Though admired for his integrity and support of reform, his legacy is tied to one of America’s most controversial turning points.
