SUMMARY:Revolutionary Narratives: From Broadsides to Hollywood
DESCRIPTION:The American Revolution has been contested since its very beginning. During the Revolution\, contemporaries looking to understand what independence meant had to shift through disinformation and journalism rife with as many opinions as today. In the war’s aftermath\, narratives of the Revolution went through continuous reinterpretations in response to political and social changes. From the Civil War to the Cold War and newsrooms to Hollywood\, Americans looked to the Revolutionary era to debate and define what it meant to be an American\, with often divisive results. Now\, during the 250th anniversary of the Revolution\, Jordan Taylor and Michael Hattem will examine commentary in Revolutionary-era newspapers and broadsides\, consider how understanding of American independence has changed over time\, and reflect on how the public sees the nation’s founding today. \nThis is a hybrid event. FREE for MHS Members. $10 per person fee (in person). No charge for virtual attendees or Card to Culture participants (EBT\, WIC\, and ConnectorCare). The in-person reception starts at 5:30 and the program will begin 6:00 PM. \nPlease visit here to register: https://www.masshist.org/events/revolutionary-narratives-fiori
