SUMMARY:Remember the Ladies: Stitching Together a Revolution
DESCRIPTION:York’s presentation explores the role our founding mothers played in the American Revolution.  The words of Abigail Adams\, wife of John Adams resonate in the title.  She beseeched her husband to “Remember the Ladies” as he and the Continental Congress created the document that would shape this new democracy.  Women of the time used their cunning\, creativity\, and skills with the needle to craft a story of how they supported the efforts of the military.  You’ll meet activists\, impersonators\, and seamstresses who supported the war effort and in some cases changed its trajectory.\n___\nThis presentation was developed in partnership with Nebraska Public Media as part of its engagement initiatives around “The American Revolution\,” the highly anticipated new documentary from Ken Burns\, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt. The documentary premieres on November 16\, 2025\, and activities continue through July 2026 in commemoration of America 250.
