Be there the moment it begins. On America's 250th birthday, the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library opens its doors atop a mesa overlooking the Little Missouri River — and the livestream brings the whole ceremony to you.
After losing his wife and his mother on the same day in 1884, a heartbroken young Theodore Roosevelt came west to this rugged country to start again. The Badlands remade him — and shaped the conservationist and leader the nation would come to know. Generations later, the Library rises from the same landscape that changed his life.
