But does the nation begin in 1776, or do we trace its origins to some point earlier--for example, the arrival of the first enslaved people in 1619 or the initial settlement of Indigenous people? What's at stake with establishing a date that marks the nation's origins? Where does the history of the nation begin? In colonial New England, the Chesapeake, or in the Southwest? \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn this unprecedented volume, leading thinkers come together to debate these--and many other--issues.
