    Can a President Start a War Without Congress?



    In this episode of Lest We Forget History, Lillian Cauldwell examines the long-standing constitutional debate over who has the authority to take the United States to war. The Constitution grants Congress the power to declare war while the president serves as commander in chief of the military.

    Over time, presidents have increasingly used military force without formal declarations of war, raising important questions about constitutional authority and the balance of power in the U.S. government


    Lest We Forget History is produced by Passionate World Talk Radio Network to explore historical events and issues that continue to influence our world today.

  • America’s First Slavery Wasn’t What You Think

    America’s First Slavery Wasn’t What You Think

    America’s First Slavery Wasn’t What You Think

    In this episode of Lest We Forget History, Lillian Cauldwell examines Indigenous enslavement in America — a chapter often minimized in traditional historical narratives. Beginning in 1492 with Christopher Columbus, Native peoples were captured and forced into labor as European colonization expanded.

    Alongside devastating disease, these systems of forced labor accelerated the decline of Native populations. Indigenous enslavement continued well into the 18th century before African enslavement became the dominant labor system in the colonies.


    This episode provides historical context that challenges common assumptions about how slavery began in America. Historical references include early colonial records and established research on Indigenous enslavement in the Americas.

    Will the SAVE Act Voter ID Bill Change Who Can Vote?

    Lillian Cauldwell on Lest We Forget History examines the SAVE Act Voter ID Bill and what its passage in the House could mean for federal elections and voter eligibility.

    The GOP-led House approved the measure on February 11, requiring proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections and approved photo identification before casting a ballot. Supporters argue it strengthens election integrity, while critics raise concerns about documentation mismatches and potential barriers for certain voters.
