The Mason-Dixon Line: An Enduring Boundary in American History

Delaware Humanities speaker, Mike Dixon will be back to delve into the fascinating and complex history of the Mason-Dixon Line - an enduring boundary that is deeply etched into the American landscape and our nation's collective memory.  Dixon will explore the original story of the Mason-Dixon Line, which began as a survey aimed at resolving a contentious territorial  dispute over royal land grants.  He will also touch on how the line's significance has evolved over time and its lasting influence on popular culture.

Mike Dixon is a speaker who never makes you feel like you are at a "lecture".  He makes you feel like you are sitting in someone's living room talking about an interesting topic and part of the conversation.  Dixon's presentation is underwritten by a grant from Delaware Humanities.
