SUMMARY:The American Revolution's End and an Empire’s Beginning
DESCRIPTION:Could the American Revolution have been both a fight for human liberty—and for empire and dominance? \nExplore the strange duality of the Revolutionary War with historian Lawrence Hatter. Meet the Revolutionary War generation who won huge victories for universal human rights\, yet who conquered other humans for territory and treasure. Discover the Battle of Fallen Timbers\, where the U.S.’s victory over a Native confederacy led to its ongoing invasion of Indian Country. \nAs the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence approaches\, how can we celebrate the Founders’ achievements while reconciling with this dissonant past? \nLOCATION: 819 SW 152nd St. Burien\, WA 98166 \nWHEN: April 24th\, 1-2pm
