## Resource

As America gears up for its 250th birthday, historians are turning to the past to chart its future, asking what it means to be American—and what the nation must do to endure for another two and a half centuries. They reveal how U.S. global influence has shifted from post-WWII leadership to a more fragmented, nationalist foreign policy. Core American identity is defined not by birth or ethnicity, but by principles like rule of law, Constitution, and an immigrant spirit of hope and hard work. Experts call for a “third Reconstruction” to rebuild institutions, expand opportunity, and heal civic divisions—while urging citizens to practice public virtue and defend democracy. The nation’s survival hinges on the choices made now.
