(From Mount Vernon to the Alamo, from Plimoth Plantation to Little Bighorn, American history is on display across the United States, and yet the reputations of individuals and groups enshrined at these national historic sites still tend to overshadow the lives of women, minorities, and laborers who played essential roles in the history.
