A piece of American history is taking to the skies, embarking on a journey to reach every corner of the nation. The Freedom Plane National Tour, a mobile exhibit of vital historical documents, is set to launch, bringing the past directly to the people.
The tour isn’t about exclusive access for Washington insiders; it’s a deliberate effort to democratize history. As Rodney Slater, president of the National Archives Foundation, powerfully stated, this rich heritage belongs to *all* Americans, regardless of location.
Accessibility is paramount. Each exhibit within the Freedom Plane is free to the public, ensuring that financial constraints won’t prevent anyone from experiencing these foundational records.
While each venue has a capacity, organizers are committed to accommodating as many visitors as possible. Expect potential wait times if a location is particularly popular, but the dedication is to ensure the widest possible access.
The journey begins on March 3rd, with the first stop scheduled for Kansas City. From there, the Freedom Plane will continue its mission, carrying the weight of history to communities across the country.
