'The Young American; his Dangers, his Duties, & his Destinies' is a compelling address delivered by Bishop George Washington Doane on July 4, 1853, at Burlington College. Commemorating the seventy-seventh anniversary of American independence and the college’s seventh anniversary, this oration delves into the unique position and moral obligations of young Americans in a rapidly evolving nation.Doane’s speech explores the perceived threats to American society, the essential duties of its citizens, and the grand destiny awaiting the nation. It serves as a snapshot of mid-19th-century American ideals, reflecting the era’s fervent nationalism and belief in American exceptionalism. This historical document offers valuable insights into the social, political, and moral values that shaped the young republic and continues to resonate with themes of civic responsibility and national identity.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
