America @ 250: Commemorating the Semiquincentennial and National History

In 2026, the United States marks a historic milestone, 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

In this episode, we explore the story of America’s Semiquincentennial, reflecting on the events, people, and ideals that shaped the nation over two and a half centuries. From the struggle for independence and the founding of a new republic to periods of growth, conflict, innovation, and change, we examine the journey that brought the United States to its 250th birthday.

What does 250 years of American history reveal?
How has the nation evolved since 1776?
And what lessons can be drawn from its triumphs and challenges?

Through key moments, influential figures, and defining events, we look back on the history of the United States while considering its future in an ever-changing world.

Because understanding where a nation is going begins with understanding where it has been.
