Bicentennial lessons and the nation’s mixed mood
John Warner, head of the American Revolution Bicentennial Administration since 1974, travels the country urging reflection on the first two centuries. He notes blacks and American Indians feel sidelined, warns of dictation fueled by office machinery, and urges practical energy recycling as waste grows in cities like New York. The ARBA lacks enforcement power but supports state and local observances as Americans rally behind a shared heritage.
