Plymouth at the Crossroads:
Changes in Rural America
​​Crossroads can be funny things. Sometimes they loom in your path, requiring you to make a choice before you can move on. Other times you may not realize it was a crossroads until looking back in retrospect and realize that decisions at that given moment changed everything.
​
Take a look back at Plymouth's history through the frame of crossroads and how they impacted the town and how Plymouth has avoided some of the pitfalls of being considered a rural town.

The Declaration of Independence acknowledges a most volatile right: the people’s right to rebel. If the people are not happy with their government, then it is within their unalienable rights to “alter and abolish it.” In 1776, that right was exercised through armed rebellion. But is that the only way to exercise that right?
In 1963, John Lewis envisioned a different sort of revolution, one that would achieve the ends of freedom and liberty through non-violent means. In this “unfinished revolution,” he argued, current enemies are seen as future friends. We’ll consider how the language of the Declaration guides social movements, across the political spectrum, to institute a government that seems most
likely to protect each other’s unalienable rights.
