1922 – America One Hundred Years Ago
June 16, 2022 @ 1:00 PM - 2:30 PM
57 years after his murder at the hands of terrorists, Abraham Lincoln’s magnificent memorial was opened in 1922. Lincoln’s son, Robert, was still alive to see this extraordinary testament to his father’s hopes for America. The grand celebration was a hopeful note of reconciliation in a year that brought great change, excitement, turmoil, and controversy.
