tHIS IS NOT Your Basic
U.S. HISTORY 101

Not Chronicles

We analyze the American Revolution from different angles, not in chronological order.

not Stories

We don't do good guys and bad guys. And don't expect the customary beginnings, middle climaxes and clear endings.

not myths

Myths are important - even sacred. And we point them out. But we don't mythologize the American Revolution.

In this program, 33 professors analyze the American Revolution from 33 different angles in in-depth interviews with host, Adel Aali.
