Land of Lincoln
There’s no evidence that Abraham Lincoln ever set foot on the land that would become Colorado while he was alive, but the late president is making plenty of appearances here this week. After a special, one-hour sneak preview of the PBS film Looking for Lincoln, Colorado state historian Bill Convery, University of Denver professor and Abraham Lincoln scholar Susan Schulten and University of Colorado African-American Studies professor and chair William King will present a panel discussion of Lincoln’s legacy in our times. The free program begins tonight at 7 p.m. at DU’s Sturm Hall, 2000 East Asbury Avenue, and seats are limited; to reserve a spot, call 303-866-4648. Rocky Mountain PBS will broadcast the full, two-hour Looking for Lincoln on February 11.
