Have you ever wondered how much of the hit musical "Hamilton" is true? Dr. Chretien Guidry of the College of Southern Maryland will be leading the 2-part discussion to explore how history and music blend together to tell Hamilton's story and contribute to the retelling of our Nation's foundation. Music will be involved!
Appreciate Alexander Hamilton's life through Lin-Manuel Miranda's haunting lyrics "Who Lives, Who Dies, Who Tells Your Story." Be reveled by "The Room Where it Happens" which lays out how the federal government made lasting impactful decisions. Delve deeper into our founding era through this collection of primary source documents and images at Revisiting the Founding Era Reader. This program is part of Revisiting the Founding Era, a three-year national initiative of the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History presented in partnership with the American Library Association and the National Constitution Center, with generous support from the National Endowment for the Humanities.
