The Raymond F. Ratcliffe Memorial Transportation Museum presents a Free Community Screening of "Resolved to Live and Die: The Revolutionary Roots of Southwest Virginia" on Friday, July 3, 2026.
Cool off inside the Ratcliffe Museum and enjoy a free community screening of "Resolved to Live and Die: The Revolutionary Roots of Southwest Virginia".
"Resolved to Live and Die: The Revolutionary Roots of Southwest Virginia" is a historical documentary produced by Blue Ridge PBS and PBS Appalachia Virginia that explores Southwest Virginia’s decisive yet often overlooked role in the American Revolution.
Centered on the 1775 Fincastle Resolutions, an early declaration of resistance to British rule, the film examines how frontier leaders and settlers pledged to “live and die” in defense of liberty more than a year before the Declaration of Independence. Through expert interviews, regional storytelling, and on-site filming at historic locations, the documentary highlights the courage, convictions, and complexities of a rugged borderland community that helped shape the course of American independence.
All are welcome.
The Raymond F. Ratcliffe Memorial Transportation Museum is located at 51 Commerce Street in Pulaski, VA.
