The 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence comes at an inflection point for Americans.
As we reflect on how to assess this moment, we’re facing questions about the very founding of the United States of America, too.
Should we judge the nation’s first leaders by the standards of their day or ours?
Should we consider their views when debating today’s issues?
Should we focus more on what makes our country great — or on how to make it better?
The writers in this special series approach America’s 250th birthday reflecting on our complicated past, the battles we are still fighting centuries later, and how we will shape our future.
