On this July 4th week, we're handing the mic to 4th graders for a history lesson

One group was tasked with studying the Quartering Act of 1765. Their podcast was one of nearly 2,000 submitted to NPR's Student Podcast Challenge.

This is an excerpt from "The Quartering Act of 1765" by Santiago Ucciferri, Alexa Susca, Samantha Cohen and Kai Sudo, fourth-graders in Jennifer D'Amelio's class at Fulton Avenue School 8 in Oceanside, N.Y.. Their podcast is a standout entry in the 2024 NPR Student Podcast Challenge.
