New Jersey was at the center of the American Revolution, but it has always been overshadowed by Boston and Philadelphia. Unlike those cities, New Jersey's revolutionary legacy is spread widely across the state, and, as a result, the state has struggled to bring its many stories together to create a coherent narrative about its revolutionary contribution. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/20/nyregion/draft-constitution-trenton-nj.html

Cassandra GoodGreetings #histodons making the #TwitterMigration!
I research, write, & teach early #AmericanHistory #GenderHistory #CulturalHistory & #PublicHistory. I'm currently finishing a book on George Washington's family.
I don't know if it will happen but I really hope this becomes a viable platform. I'm a historian of the American Revolution and popular memory. If that sounds interesting, give me a follow and I'll follow back.
