At just 15, Indian-American teen Sabrina Bhattacharjya is revolutionizing how Lexington, Massachusetts, commemorates its pivotal role in American history. Driven by a desire to make history engaging, she launched Lexington250.com at age 7, funded by her parents. The site, now a comprehensive guide to local history and amenities, gained attention for its cheeky T-shirts featuring slogans like "Lexington AF," prompting both amusement and controversy. As the town approaches its 250th anniversary of the Revolutionary War's onset, Sabrina's youthful enthusiasm contrasts with the official Lex250.org site, leading to some community confusion. Nonetheless, her efforts have sparked renewed interest in local history among younger audiences. (PC: New York Times)
