In 2004, a group of distinguished historians met with The History Channel® to discuss days that unexpectedly changed the history of America . The goal, which everyone agreed on, was to select ten days that weren't obvious and were seemingly undervalued in their influence in shaping America 's national and cultural identity.
The History Channel® then selected a group of highly creative, independent award-winning filmmakers to join the project. The result is 10 DAYS THAT UNEXPECTEDLY CHANGED AMERICA, a remarkable look at ten days, some familiar and some lesser known, that together illustrate the path this country has taken. The miniseries includes the following episodes: Massacre at Mystic, Shays' Rebellion, Gold Rush, Antietam, The Homestead Strike, Murder at the Fair, Scopes: The Battle over America's Soul, Einstein's Letter, When America was Rocked and Freedom Summer.
