Cultural History Lecture: Long Island and the American Dream

May28

Lawrence R. Samuel, a Long Island native and cultural historian, will explore regional history – based on his book Making Long Island: A History of Growth and the American Dream. Samuel’s book tells the fascinating story of the development of Long Island’s Nassau and Suffolk counties between the 1920s and 1950s. Long Island served as a primary site of the pursuit of the American dream, as it offered affordable home ownership for the middle class that most compellingly expressed the nation’s core mythology.
