Bringing Revolutionary Heroes to Life: Wedgwood Circle Wins America 250 Innovation Prize
Before Gen. George Washington crossed the Delaware, a band of hardened fishermen rewrote the rules of the American military—and history nearly forgot them.
But Wedgwood Circle, a collective of investors, patrons, and creative talent in the entertainment industry, did not.
With the help of a $50,000 Heritage Foundation America’s 250th Innovation Prize grant, Wedgwood Circle is producing “Marblehead: The Untold Story of the Men in the Boat,” a 120-page graphic novel that brings to life the story of the Marblehead regiment—the first racially integrated unit in the American military during the American Revolution.
They were involved in several critical conflicts during the Revolutionary War, including Washington’s iconic crossing of the Delaware River.
The regiment was responsible for many heroic acts throughout their time in the war, including when they provided Washington’s initial bodyguard when conspiracies to assassinate him arose in the early years of the war.
The project was developed in partnership with MORE Productions and a team of experienced graphic novelists, educational consultants, publication experts, and promotional strategists to ensure broad distribution and impact.
