Description

The History and Evolution of the Pledge of Allegiance

Millions of school children recite the pledge to the flag every day and every new United States citizen is required to memorize it, but few people know who wrote it, when and why. Hear the true story of our unique pledge of allegiance that was first written as a kick off for the Chicago World’s Fair in 1892.

Presented by Midway Village Museum.
