This engaging discussion will explore 250 years of American history, highlighting the individuals, ideas, and events that shaped our nation while also acknowledging the challenges and injustices experienced by many Americans along the way.

From the Founding Fathers and the principles of our nation’s founding documents to influential figures such as Susan B.

The program will also spotlight the important contributions of Summerville and Dorchester County to our nation’s story.
