"These interactive and carefully curated activities are just a few parts of the Nixon Library’s “America 250: A More Perfect Union” exhibit that highlights various points of American history: from colonial America and the Revolution to the Civil War and the country’s growing pains, to two world wars and innovation that still impacts daily lives today, to the Cold War, to finally a retrospective on the country’s bicentennial in 1976."
