This July marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence. In recognition of that milestone, the AHR's June 2026 issue is devoted entirely to exploring the material culture of the revolutionary era. Titled "'76 Objects," it was edited by AHA executive director Sarah Weicksel together with co-editors Ashli White, Zara Anishanslin, Kenneth Cohen, and Nathan Perl-Rosenthal. The issue itself contains more than sixty individual contributions from historians writing about particular objects connected to the history of the revolution. In this episode, Daniel speaks with Sarah about the issue, and we hear from a handful of contributors on the objects they wrote about.
