ECC/From Small Towns to National Championships: The Role of Sports in the American Identity

Join America House and Fulbright ETA Sam Hearn for a conversation about the powerful role of sports in shaping the American identity. Together we will discuss how sports reflect core American values like competition, teamwork, community, and perseverance, learn about famous athletes, and discuss sporting events from the local to the national level. We will also compare the role of sports in both America's and Moldova's identities, demonstrating how sports can bring people together across different countries.
