About
Join us as we delve deeply into the documents that shaped our nation.
In 2025, Carolina’s History Department created a textbook that assembles 21 essential documents that relate to key moments in U.S. history, each introduced by a faculty member. This semester in our Humanities in Action lecture series, we’ve invited some of the contributors to that book, The Foundations of American Democracy, to tell the story of the US through key documents. Using speeches, letters, laws, and declarations, these presentations will investigate the aspirations and calls for change that shaped a nation.
Speaker:
