Why the Brand Now Says US Americans
This field note is part of the FOBA learning stream. It is meant to orient readers and point toward better source work.
Key points
- The updated public brand, The Foundations of US Americans, gives first-time visitors a clearer civic learning frame.
- The phrase points to shared public education around U.S. places, records, memory, community research, and source review.
- It does not certify identity, ancestry, tribe, nationality, DNA conclusions, legal status, descent, or membership.
Next steps
- Use the full brand name in formal public copy.
- Keep TheFoundationsOf.us as the domain and learning-center shorthand.
- Add the identity disclaimer near sensitive claims.
