John J. Miller is joined by Mark Moyar to discuss his new book, 'Masters of Corruption.'

In 1788, the son of the leader of the Confederation of Futa Jallon in West Africa was commanding his 2,000 troops against a neighboring military force and was captured. 

He was sold into slavery and spent the next 40 years of his life living as a slave in Mississippi. That was until a chance meeting revealed his true identity, which eventually led to his freedom and the involvement of the President of the United States. 

Learn more about Abdulrahman Ibrahim Ibn Sori, the prince who became a slave and whose emancipation became an international issue, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Real Americans, the new novel by Rachel Khong, spans generations and decades within a family to understand the ongoing struggle to make sense of race, class and identity in the United States. Like with any family story, there are secrets and confrontations and difficult conversations, too; that desire to fill in the gaps about where we come from and how it has shaped our lineage is at the center of today's interview with Khong and NPR's Juana Summers.

If you are listening to me speak these words and can understand what I’m saying, then you are a human being.

If you are a human being, you are also a mammal, and if you are a mammal, you have hair….or at least the biological capability to produce hair.

But why exactly do we have hair? What function does it serve? Why do we have less than other animals? And why do people have different types of hair?

Learn more about hair, what it does and how it works on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

In the last year of the Second World War, things were not going well for the Imperial Japanese military. 

They had lost several major naval battles against the United States, they were losing territory, and they had no capability to rebuild the ships that they were losing.

They were desperate to find something to turn the tide of the war. What they settled on was one of the most terrifying tactics of the entire conflict for participants on both sides. 

Learn more about the kamikaze pilots and why Japan adopted such a desperate tactic on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
