We are excited to partner up with Ashland Public Library as we do a virtual series to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence! Please welcome Gracia Collins Rich an Independent Scholar, Author and Avid Reader. She will be discussing the extraordinary efforts of Black Americans whose invaluable contributions during the Revolutionary War helped bring about U.S. Independence. Gracia discusses ALL things history and all things on the origins of the United States even if it is uncomfortable because she believes that that is what leads to a better understanding of this Country and why some things are the way they are. We hope you can join us for this fascinating and important conversation!
I’m Gracia and I LOVE HISTORY! I mean REALLY LOVE IT! My goal is that we can learn and grow together in the fascinating world of American History through the ALL-INCLUSIVE HISTORY that you will find on this site. For me, the real crux of what we know as “American History” is what we are taught about our foundation, the 17th through 19th centuries. So most history featured on these pages will reflect that time period. I have this saying, “I love the Why. I love beginnings, and here is where we find our beginning. What happened in these years brings us to today’s problems.” It all started here and we are going to find out how and why together. I look forward to sharing All-inclusive American History with you.
