Damon Akins Writes Manifest Destiny Column

An op-ed by Assistant Professor of History Damon Akins appeared in the Oct. 21 News & Record.

The column — History lesson in an offensive fashion design — uses the recent controversy over Greensboro native, Mark McNairy’s “Manifest Destiny” T-shirt for the Gap as a way to think about the importance of a deep commitment to a rich multicultural education in the state.

It also has been posted on the History News Network website.
