Secretary of State Gregg Amore joins PVD POV to talk about Rhode Island 250, the state’s role in America’s founding, and the events happening across Rhode Island to mark the nation’s 250th anniversary.
From rare copies of the Declaration of Independence to Liberty Tree plantings, WaterFire, the Rhode Island Philharmonic, and plans for a future Rhode Island History Center, this episode digs into why Rhode Island’s story is bigger than people think.
