LBJ Library Spring Webinar Series- "We the People; A Work in Progress"
Wednesdays - 5:00-6:30 Central February 24-March 31, 2021
With the recent rise in civic engagement and participation, our nation's core principles of freedom, democracy, and liberty are being redefined. While the foundational documents of the United States of America layout the ideals for this country, many of the rights and freedoms they guaranteed did not apply to all. As our country moves forward in the 21st century, we have the ability to reimagine a government where “We the People” means all the people. In this series, we will dive into concepts and systems covered in the founding documents, discussing how they have evolved through time and how they continue to impact us today.
We are offering several options to participate:
