The American Revolution
November 13 - 7:00 pm Join WVIA for an exclusive free preview screening of The American Revolution, the powerful new six-part documentary series by acclaimed filmmakers Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein, and David Schmidt. This landmark series tells the story of how, 250 years ago, thirteen British colonies rose in rebellion, secured their independence, and established a new nation — one whose ideals of liberty and self-government would inspire democratic movements around the world. Be among the first to experience this extraordinary series before its national premiere on November 16 on PBS. Following the screening, enjoy a special discussion with guests as we reflect on the enduring legacy of America’s fight for independence.
