The 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, which began in Boston, is being commemorated this year with celebration and reflection on American history, our national purpose, and democracy itself.
To mark this significant occasion, the Globe's Ideas team is hosting a town hall-style event at the Old South Meeting House on Thursday, June 26.
Moderated by Globe Ideas Editor Brian Bergstein, the event will feature conversations with historians and contributors to the recent special issue from Globe Ideas titled “The Revolution Lives On.”
