   Constitution Explained: Civil Rights for All Americans | History in 5 | PragerU Kids

   You’ve probably heard it asked before: didn't the Framers own slaves? Some did. But the Constitution they created was fundamentally opposed to slavery. How did the Framers set the stage to eliminate slavery in the future? And why couldn’t they end the practice in their own time? The answer might surprise you. 💻 Watch more History in 5 ➡ https://l.prageru.com/4sGROGz 🚨 Never miss a video!

   Constitution Explained: What Is the President’s Job?

   How much power should the President have? That was a big question on the minds of the writers of the Constitution. A Chief Executive without enough power means a government too weak to do its job. But a president with too much power can become a tyrant. How would the Founders ensure that the new American government would strike the right balance? New here?

   Constitution Explained: What Does Congress Do?

   With the creation of the U.S. Constitution, the Founders flipped the script for how governments had always functioned around the world. Rather than anointing a king or a ruler, they wanted to give power to the people. So how would citizens have a voice in making their own laws? That’s where the Legislative Branch comes in—the House of Representatives and the Senate. New here? Start with our Best of PragerU Kids playlist, featuring top episodes for K-12 students.

   Constitution Explained: How the Founders Got It Done

   When America became independent, it was hardly a strong, unified country. Every state had its own government, its own culture, and its own ideas.

    Constitution Explained: What Is a Republic?

    America declared its independence from England in 1776. Then it fought—and won—a war to secure that independence. So what would America do with its newfound freedom? The first step was to establish a government. But what type of government would the Founders create—a monarchy? A democracy? Or something that had never been done before? New here?
