The WOA Center in Lutsk Gives Glimpses into American History.

On February 04, 2013 35 people gathered at the WOA Center in Lutsk to pay tribute and  to listen to the story of Thaddeus Kosciuszko, a national hero of the United States, Poland, Belarus and Lithuania.

The audience showed great desire to discuss American History, mainly the period of time from 1775 till1783 – the American Revolutionary War when Thaddeus Kosciuszko joined Washington’s army in the fight for the freedom of the North American colonies.





Also the audience was proposed to watch the Audio Podcast about the General.







 The current exhibition of books “Thaddeus Kosciuszko and the Age of Revolution” gave detailed information about that period of time and described Kosciuszko as the "purest son of liberty."(Thomas Jefferson).





After the event the audience was offered to make a tour through America and to learn more about American society. A rich resource for the study of U.S. history - American political cartoons entitled “Join, or Die.” - was of great interest among the visitors.
