Hello All,

Is anyone else having trouble navigating the America250 without bringing up politics or glossing over aspects of America’s history…?

Ideas for programs, displays, etc. seem to either 1.) Put out an uber-patriotic ideal or 2.) Invite debate about current events and politics…

How can we find a balance between sugarcoating our nation’s history and being to ‘woke’ for our more conservative patrons?

All ideas and feedback are welcome. No judgment.
