About This Event

Summer Series Part III Revolution from Below: Debtors, the Landless, and the Common People

August 5th, 2026, at 12 pm

Speaker John Ericson, Executive Director and Site Historian

Much of the Revolution’s radical energy came not from elites but from ordinary people crushed by debt, taxation, and land scarcity. Understanding them reveals the Revolution as a social as well as a political upheaval.
