🔥 Burned Churches in the American Revolution — Public History Lecture 🔥
Join us for an engaging evening of history as Bill Segars explores how churches became targets during the American Revolution—and why their destruction mattered far beyond the battlefield.
These churches were more than places of worship. They were centers of Patriot activity, community gathering spaces, and symbols of shared identity. Their burning was meant to intimidate and divide, and their stories reveal a powerful side of the civilian experience during the war.
