In September 1901, President William McKinley was shot at the Pan-American Exposition in Buffalo, New York, by anarchist Leon Czolgosz. Within days, the popular president was dead, and the nation was plunged into mourning. His assassination brought Theodore Roosevelt to power, transformed presidential security, and highlighted the rising tensions of a rapidly changing America. In this episode, we trace McKinley’s presidency, the events of that fateful day, and the enduring impact of his death.
