The 250th anniversary of the Anza Colonizing Expedition of 1775-76 provides a point in time for reflection and re-examination of the historical geography of the Americas. The expedition followed a 1,900-mile route north and west from present day Sonora that took settlers to the frontier of the Spanish Empire and traversed the homelands of numerous indigenous peoples. Learn more about the expedition and how the route is remembered and commemorated by the U.S. National Park Service and the indigenous nations that withstood profound impacts of invasion, settlement, and environmental change and continue to shape the future of the lands along the trail.<\/p>\n<h4>Audience Focus<\/h4>\n<p>Speakers will share free information and resources appropriate for the education of diverse audiences.
