G – History

Graphic of Delaware with Sussex County Highlighted

Lewes (Trinity Faith Education Building) | October 16, 2024-November 13, 2024

Wednesday: 9:00 AM-10:15 AM

The information we were taught in school does not represent the whole story. At every educational level, America’s story has been told in a skewered fashion. Words have been misused and we have been misled. We have learned the myth of America. Part two of a two-part series discusses the United States from post-WWI to today. The following topics are covered: reaping what was sown, into the fray once again, modern times, vying for control, and political chaos.
