Lucas and Luke talk with Harvey J. Kaye, author of several books, including Thomas Paine and the Promise of America, Thomas Paine: Firebrand of the Revolution, The British Marxist Historians, and The Fight for the Four Freedoms. Our conversation focuses on Tom Paine, including his upbringing and political development; his works, such as Common Sense and Rights of Man; and his legacy, including his contribution to nearly every progressive movement in the U.S., including his little-known contribution to the Civil Rights Movement.
