Be thoughtful here and tell me in over 200 words what you learned about Ben Franklin you didn’t already know. Keep the fluff down. Just explain what you learned and, should you need the word count, why what you learned about him is important.
Read this to see a little about how Franklin and Poor Richard’s Almanack fit into the Enlightenment Period, specifically as it pertains to the forthcoming United States. The Enlightenment is a remarkable period that seems to be the beginning of so many important societal advances, from looking to science to the very earliest beginnings of fighting racism. It’s fascinating. I hope you agree.
