Join us for a three-part series of in-person lectures by Dr. Matthew Warshauer, in preparation for America’s 250th!
- British Acts of the 1760s/70s and American Reactions
- The Hartford Courant in the 1770s (more time explaining the articles) I also have left over booklets and can give them out.
- The Declaration of Independence: A Close Reading
Matthew Warshauer is a professor of history at Central Connecticut State University, where he has studied and written extensively on what he calls “the American paradox,” the conflicting ideological beliefs and practices of the United States. Learn more here.
