SUMMARY:Paul Revere A Patriot With A Purpose
DESCRIPTION:Paul Revere: A Patriot With A Purpose\nPaul Revere is a unique figure in USA history   His name is universally known for his “Midnight Ride\,” yet he seems to appear out of nowhere on that day and disappear the next   Like Rosa Parks\, he seems to be important for one day of his life\, which changes American History and then vanishes   But like Mrs. Parks\, Paul Revere was a brave\, determined\, and respected leader who led a rich\, complete\, and essential life before and after his moment of fame. \nWhile Americans recall something of the drama of Paul Revere’s ride\, the details are more harrowing\, exciting\, and heroic than you may realize. The CIA credits Revere with organizing the first spy network to protect America! \nPaul Revere was captured on his way to Lexington and Concord by the British -who threatened him with death   The daring Patriot escaped their clutches\, slipping through their lines and then riding tirelessly\, Revere saved the necks of John Hancock and John Adams    Using his quick wits and unbelievable courage\, Paul Revere even managed to smuggle top-secret documents to safety -right under the nose of the British column! \nHow was Paul Revere a Patriot with a purpose   And which modern United States hero would be the most comparable to him   Click here to read my surprising answer! \nPlease join us for this exciting and unexpected multimedia presentation where we will learn how the remarkable Patriot Paul Revere helped organize Boston’s fierce resistance to foreign occupation\, revolutionized American industry\, and managed to take the unforgettable midnight ride! \n\n\n  \n

SUMMARY:America's Purpose Statement: The Declaration Of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The most important sentence ever written by an American – a sentence that has inspired people in every part of the world – is found in America’s purpose statement! Click here to read more. The legacy of Washington\, Hancock\, Franklin\, Jefferson\, Adams\, Hamilton\, and Paul Revere still challenges us. \n \nOn a stifling July Thursday in 1776\, our Founding Fathers agreed to a completely unique document in the world’s history. Many revolutions had occurred over the centuries\, but never had one begun with a philosophical purpose statement. \nAlthough the Declaration of Independence has no legal power\, it has become the guiding beacon for what America strives to become. As the events of 2020 showed\, we as a nation are a world leader in human rights\, yet America is still a work in progress. \n \nWhy study the Declaration of Independence? It is the ultimate statement of what we hope to become. Freedom movements in the USA and worldwide have quoted it. \nYet many Americans know surprisingly little about it. In this exciting and thought-provoking multimedia presentation\, I will present the thrilling themes\, difficult negotiations\, contradictory\, complex\, charismatic personalities\, and exciting events leading to the most critical moment in American history. \n
