Description
The world is familiar with the accomplishments of America’s historical giants: men like George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Patrick Henry. The efforts of these great men were essential to the overthrow of tyranny and the establishment of the United States as a self-governing republic. But their contributions were made possible by the often overlooked people of history on whose shoulders these first line patriots stood. 

These people, preachers and servants, enslaved and free, who lived their lives, some heroically and some humbly, were nation builders no less than the Washingtons, Jeffersons and Henrys of history. 

Have a conversation with a Nation Builder as they discuss the "Revolutionary" events that helped to inspire and influence the ideas of their American dream.
