Evergreen Forum: Antebellum America
Krista Hendrickson • July 23, 2024
After a distinguished legal career, Mr. Frank has discovered a new passion for writing in his retirement. His previous works, exploring the Constitution, the Gay Rights movement, and the 2016 election, reflect his deep interests and have all been well-received.
Now, drawing inspiration from his latest book, Mr. Frank brings his keen eye to the past with an exciting new course at the Evergreen Forum: Antebellum America: It Still Matters. This course delves into the critical period of 1789 to 1861, exploring how issues of slavery, the evolving interpretation of the Constitution, war, and more continue to shape our present day.
Lovers of history and those who wish to reflect on the reflections of our past as they impact our present will enjoy Antebellum America: It Still Matters. We hope you’ll join Mr. Frank on Thursday mornings at 10:00 a.m. for this insightful exploration of history’s enduring impact for this fall’s semester of Evergreen Forum.
