dc.descriptionUnlike the Declaration of Independece, the U.S. Constitution, or even the American Flag, Francis Scott Key's song "The Star-Spangled Banner" lacks a singular icon that defines it. Individuals sing the anthem into a fleeting materiality, simultaneously constructing themselves as a community while inscribing the song ever more deeply into cultural memory. The artifacts in "Banner Moments" capture material iterations of the song and thus record the crystallization of an American national consciousness. In turn, they trace the development of nation through war and protest, commerce, and celebration.
