Philadelphia has given rise to numerous potent and divisive symbols of white America. One such example, a flag that symbolizes freedom to some, signals oppression to so many others. Join us for “A More Perfect Union” on Inquirer LIVE on Wednesday, April 13, at 4:15 p.m. to discuss the second chapter of the series. Contributing Editor Errin Haines of The 19th* talks with one of the chapter’s writers, historian Martha S. Jones. They welcome some of the artists whose work is featured to discuss their interpretations of the symbols that were created in Philadelphia.
Participate in the Q&A directly following the talk.
A More Perfect Union, The Inquirer’s tentpole, year-long, multi-part and multi-platform project, is exploring the origins and impacts of these All-American institutions — with an eye toward forward-looking solutions and ways in which we can truly form A More Perfect Union.
