All are invited to a celebration of the enduring legacy of the Constitution featuring BSU Alexander M. Bracken Distinguished Professor of History, Dr. Nicole Etcheson who will delve into Revising the Work of the Founders: The Reconstruction Amendments. 

"The Civil War caused Americans to believe that the Founders' work had been imperfect. They revised the Constitution by adding amendments to free enslaved people, granting them citizenship and rights, including the vote. Why did the post-Civil War generation write the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments?"

Sponsored by the Paul Revere Chapter (Daughters of the American Revolution) celebrating Constitution Week (September 17-23) with The League of Women Voters of Muncie-Delaware County.
