Founding Martyr: Joseph Warren

Dr. Joseph Warren is considered by many "the lost hero of the American Revolution." Warren was the brainchild of the revolution movement in Boston. Warren was involved in almost every major insurrectionary act in the Boston area for a decade, from the Stamp Act protests to the Boston Massacre to the Boston Tea Party, and his incendiary writings included the famous Suffolk Resolves, which helped unite the colonies against Britain and inspired the Declaration of Independence. As we approach the 250th commemoration of the Boston Tea Party, we will focus on Warren's life, his role in the Boston Tea Party and his lasting impact on the Revolution. Grab a drink and join us as we talk with author and historian Christian Di Spigna. His ground breaking biography Warren properly places Warren along other Revolutionary icons of Adams, Washington and Jefferson.
