George Washington Slept Here

George Washington Slept Here

Shining city on a hill. Political polarization. American exceptionalism. A nation divided. Come explore with Freedoms Foundation at Valley Forge how the first principles of freedom can help American citizens recognize that what they share in common is stronger than what divides them.

George Washington managed to unite a new nation after the Revolutionary War. He was so popular, his travels throughout this young republic are still memorialized by brass plaques that read “George Washington Slept Here.”

Join Freedoms Foundation CEO David Harmer and staff as they talk with thinkers, writers, and leaders to discover whether the American experiment really is on the Roman road to oblivion. Or might this nearly 250-year-old nation – conceived in liberty – have the resilience to endure?
