History 605: S2, Ep5 'America at 250'

As July 4th, 2022 approaches, most folks aren't thinking about the Independence Day four years from now. But for today's guest, it's his full-time job.

How will the United States celebrate its 250th Birthday?

Today we talk to Joseph Daniels about how history and heritage will be used to commemorate and celebrate the nation's Semiquincentennial, or the 250th year since the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

Joseph Daniels is the Chief Executive Officer of the America 250 Foundation charged with supporting the nation's celebration. We were able to speak to him about how he's leading the Foundation in its support of the national Semiquincentennial Commission. After listening, I hope you take a look at America250.org and consider how you can become involved for the 250th.
