Primary tabs
Join Kathleen DuVal, professor of American history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and Nicole A. Moore, president of the National Council on Public History and senior director of education at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights, for a conversation examining how the history and legacy of the American Revolution continue to shape the ways we understand and commemorate the nation’s past.
DuVal will present “‘Those Rights and Privileges Which Have Been Transmitted to Us by Our Ancestors’: The American Revolution and the Survival of Native Nations,” exploring the Revolution through the experiences and perspectives of Native nations.
Moore will present “The Right to Commemorate: History Museums and the 250th,” considering the role of history museums in interpreting and commemorating the United States’ 250th anniversary.
Together, their presentations offer perspectives on how the American Revolution is remembered, whose histories are represented, and how public institutions can engage audiences with the complexities of the past.
