Who Are We? Washington’s Kaleidoscope

Washington is a kaleidoscope of more than 7 million people, each with a unique story to tell. Where do we originate from, and who do we become? Is there a quintessential Washingtonian? Hardly. History has made it clear that we’re more than our identity and more than just techies, coffee lovers, or outdoor enthusiasts. We’re a kaleidoscope, a cultural melting pot. In this exhibit from Legacy Washington, see in-depth profiles of fascinating figures who’ve fought for our civil rights, advocated for the disabled, protected the environment, defended our nation, and pushed the boundaries of innovation in our state.
