Chautauqua- 1905

By Laura Knoy on Friday, July 22, 2005.

1905 - it was shortly after the turn of what would become the "American Century", a time of great technological advances, of Einstein's Theory of relativity, of increased racism and immigration and a time in which our country was searching for its own identity. This year 1905 is the theme of this year's Chautauqua, in which historians dress as celebrated Americans, give speeches and answer questions. Today on the Exchange some of the Chautauqua historians join us to look back to the year 1905, their roles in that year and what they think of the issues of today. Laura's guests are Theodore Roosevelt, Ida Wells-Barnett and William Jennings Bryan.
