NHC Webinar on
Protest and Civil Unrest in the United States:
An Historical Exploration

Thursday, June 11
2:00 - 3:30 pm

 

The events of the past several weeks have brought political protest, police brutality, and civil unrest back into the headlines. Activists, politicians, and political pundits daily offer observations and analysis on cable and broadcast news, Facebook and Twitter, and newspaper op-ed pages.

As the American Historical Association has repeatedly stated and as all historians know, "Everything has a history." In this inaugural webinar, the National History Center brings together five historians of 20th Century America to address the historical background surrounding the current crisis in the United States.
