Dr. Conevery Bolton Valencius is a Professor of History at Boston College, and author of “The Lost History of the New Madrid Earthquakes” and “The Health of the Country: How American Settlers Understood Themselves and Their Land.” Dr. Valencius recounts the New Madrid earthquakes which reshaped the landscape, displaced Indigenous Americans, and prompted America's first disaster relief legislation.

From the time of our country’s founding 250 years ago, the story of America has been one of the constant efforts of Americans—from all races, ethnicities, genders, and abilities—to make real the belief that we are all created equal and have a right to have a say in our democracy. We will be telling their stories over the next several weeks because now, as ever, “We Are America.”
