Join Revolutionary Spaces for the launch of Eli Merritt’s new eye-opening book, Disunion Among Ourselves: The Perilous Politics of the American Revolution.Merritt reveals the deep political divisions that almost tore the Union apart during the American Revolution, and how the founding generation succeeded in holding the young nation together by uniting for the sake of liberty and self-preservation.
Disunion Among Ourselves has inevitable resonances with our present era of political hyperpolarization and serves as a touchstone for contemporary politics, reminding us that the founders overcame far tougher times than our own through commitment to ethical constitutional democracy and compromise.
This program will begin at 5:30 pm and is free and open to the public thanks to the generous support of The Lowell Institute.
Light snacks and refreshments will be provided.
