# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The American Origin Myth: Why We Remember the Revolution
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 12 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm
- **Event Description**: As we commemorate the 250th anniversary of independence, it is an ideal time to think about the importance and meaning of the American Revolution in the nation's history. For two and a half centuries, Americans have told and retold the story of the Revolution, visually depicted its most important scenes, visited historical sites, and engaged in reenactments of its most famous moments. In this talk, historian Michael D. Hattem will discuss the unique role of the Revolution in American history and culture as our national "origin myth." He will explore how, for two and a half centuries, Americans have constantly revised the meanings and ideals of the Revolution in ways that have always been shaped by their own times. Hattem will also address how and why Americans have always had a uniquely emotional connection to the memory of the Revolution.
