SUMMARY:Liberty is Sweet: The Hidden History of the American Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Cary Library\n\nIn Woody Holton’s  “hidden history” of the American Revolution\, nothing is quite what it seems. The phrase “Liberty is Sweet” sounds like the sentiments of Jefferson or Franklin\, but actually comes from a 1775 letter describing George Washington’s slaves’ aspirations to escape Mount Vernon. Holton entitled his preface “Invisible Enemies” in a nod to the Native Americans who were long omitted from the story of American Independence but played a crucial role in bringing on the Revolutionary War and shaping its course. And these are far from the only surprises in Holton’s astounding reappraisal of the founding of the United States. Holton challenges much of the history we imagined we knew and aims to tell stories of the many who fought for liberty.\n\nThis event will be moderated by Robert A. Gross.\n\nAdmission is free and first-come\, first-served.

SUMMARY:Lexington Symphony: COMING TO AMERICA
DESCRIPTION:COMING TO AMERICA\nSATURDAY\, APRIL 26\, 2025 | 7:30 PM\nPRE-CONCERT CONDUCTOR’S TALK AT 6:30 PM\n\n\n\n\n\nSponsored by Kip Connor & Linh Vong. Pipa soloist is sponsored by Bin Wu and Family in recognition of the Chinese American Association of Lexington. \nHewitt | The Battle of Trenton \nWu\, Wang\, Liu | Little Sisters of the Prairie \nWu\, Liu | Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night \n–Cao Yue\, pipa \nDecruck | Symphonie Orientale \nÓ Riada | Mise Éire \nOur season finale opens with James Hewitt’s The Battle of Trenton and explores the attitudes\, mistakes\, and reasons that people emigrated to America. Those stories are represented through the music immigrants brought with them\, enriching our nation despite the challenges they faced. While the stories are as varied as was America’s attitude toward immigrants\, these stories are important because all those who came to America looked for a new beginning and hope for the future — which has been America’s promise.
