Manifest Destiny

What does a City on a Hill have to do with Gitmo? How are American exceptionalism and democracy promotion related to foreign wars? Why does the 19th century rallying cry of Manifest Destiny still influence American foreign policy in the 21st century? These and other questions are addressed in the powerful stories featured in MANIFEST DESTINY, an historical series produced by the documentary unit of JAK Films, a division of Lucasfilm. *The series is comprised of three 60-minute episodes. Clear-eyed and probing, Manifest Destiny addresses key foreign policy concerns that affect every American. In-depth, insightful commentary by nationally respected historians and diplomats fill in the dramatic stories each episode tells. Over two decades after the end of the Cold War, one decade after the tragedy of September 11th, now more than ever is the time for national dialogue about the role the United States should play in the increasingly interconnected world of nations.
