The Dorr Rebellion

The Dorr Rebellion of 1841-43 is considered the most significant constitutional and political event to occur in Rhode Island history. This collection, developed through a collaboration of Providence College's Digital Publishing Services, faculty, and community scholars, provides an introduction to the topic through a short-form documentary, image gallery, local constitutions, correspondence (to and from Thomas Wilson Dorr), and supporting curricular materials.
