The Massachusetts Historical Society and the Edward M. Kennedy Institute host a panel discussion featuring Stephen Fried author of Rush: Revolution, Madness & the Visionary Doctor Who Became a Founding Father.
Our Founding Fathers were progressive for their time in establishing a new nation. Many of them grappled with the same issues that we face today, including political polarization, voicing new ideas, and approaches to health care. Along with an exploration of the life and legacy of Benjamin Rush – one of the least known Founding Fathers, this panel will feature historians in a conversation of how many of our nation’s founders persevered during this time – and the lessons that we can learn by reflecting on our past.
This program will be held at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute (210 Morrissey Blvd, Boston, MA 02125)
