We Are All Americans
The American Civil War Retold

Join the journey into one of the most captivating and seminal events in all of American history. The United States in 1865 was a dramatically different country from the one that went to the polls in 1860. It and the world were transformed by the Civil War – a political struggle between sections of the country for a Union without slavery or slavery without a Union. “We Are All Americans” is the story of how the United States was transformed through the words of the three most central figures of the time – Jefferson Davis, Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln – and narrated by three reporters in a contemporary newsroom setting who describe the events as they unfolded, in time linear fashion. It is often said the country entered the war as the United States, plural, and emerged a nation, as the United States, singular. Let “We Are All Americans” take you back 150 years to experience this dramatic and profound transformation as it happened.
