SUMMARY:Untold Stories of the American Revolution by Dr. Richard Bell
DESCRIPTION:Most people know something about the American Revolution and about the Founding Fathers. But the full story of the Revolution requires us to look beyond their lives and expand its cast of characters. This lecture examines four other revolutionary lives: an immigrant propagandist\, a female soldier\, a fugitive from slavery\, and the grieving widow who became the most important Native American leader during the war. Virtual lecture with Q&A session. To register\, call the museum.
