Voices of 1776: The Diverse Faces Behind America’s Founding
Thursday, Jul 16
6:00–7:00 PM
When we think of America’s Revolution, we often picture a handful of famous Founding Fathers—but the fight for independence was far broader, richer, and more diverse. This one-hour program led by Valerie Gugala brings to light the stories of women, enslaved and free African Americans, Native peoples, and immigrants whose contributions shaped the Revolution and the new nation. Audiences will leave with a deeper, more inclusive understanding of America’s founding and the many perspectives that made independence possible.
Registration required.
