John Locke Foundation Celebrating Freedom: a Call for Papers

Overview

As part of the John Locke Foundation’s NC250: Freedom’s Vanguard initiative commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, we invite students, scholars, historians, and writers to submit papers exploring North Carolina’s role in the American Revolution and the founding of the United States. This project seeks to highlight the state’s contributions to the struggle for independence, the ideals of liberty, and the shaping of the American Republic. Prize money will be awarded to the top three submissions in the amounts of $5,000, $3,000, and $2,000.
