Reading the Revolution
The Mass Center for the Book and the Massachusetts Board of Library Commissioners have launched Reading the Revolution, a multipart reading list that captures the U.S.’s unfolding revolutions, our continuing work to extend rights to all members of society, and our aspirations of becoming a nation where everyone is truly “free and equal.”
Placing a special emphasis on Massachusetts writers and thinkers, the lists reach beyond 1776 to show that American history has been punctuated by ongoing social struggles, protest movements, and warfare as we’ve attempted to secure freedoms and political rights for larger and larger segments of our population.
