An Exhibition Displays Words That Shaped a Nation

All Of It

About this episode

In celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, the Seaport Museum's latest full-floor exhibition traces how the nation's founding ideas have evolved over time through rare defining documents and pivotal moments in history. Captain Jonathan Boulware, president of the South Street Seaport Museum and Martina Caruso, curator and Director of Collections and Exhibitions, discuss “The Promise of Liberty: Words That Shaped a Nation,” which is now on view at the historic 1868 A.A. Thomson & Co. building on 213 Water Street.
