History Wars: When Governments Try to Control the Narrative

On Wednesday, Sept. 23 at 6 p.m., the Lepage Center invites you to a virtual panel conversation about moments in the time when historians were under political scrutiny in countries across the globe. Experts on China, Russia, Italy and the United States will discuss historical examples of governments trying to control the work of historians, teachers, curators and preservationists in the modern era.

This conversation will be moderated by Lepage Center Director Whitney Martinko, PhD, and will feature Andrew Hartman, PhD (Illinois State University), Marla Stone, PhD (Occidental College) and Karrie Koesel, PhD (Notre Dame University). Register here.
