The Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Northwestern University will host Dr. Wilfred Reilly for a free event titled Confronting Common Knowledge of Race and American History.

In an era where historical claims are often shaped more by ideology than evidence, Dr. Reilly challenges audiences to reconsider what they think they know about America. Drawing on data, scholarship, and the historical record, he examines widely accepted narratives about race and American history—and exposes where so‑called “common knowledge” falls apart under scrutiny.

This event is free and open to the public.

Following his remarks, Dr. Reilly will answer questions directly from the audience during a LIVE Q&A session.
