5/3Dialogues For Common Ground: The Bill Of Rights
Dialogues For Common Ground: The Bill Of Rights
Tuesday, May 3rd, 202206:00 PM - 08:00 PMOtherVirtual
Dialogues for Common Ground: American Identity & Connecticut's Civic Reconstruction is a new program from the Democracy & Dialogues Initiative's Encounters Series.
You are warmly invited to take part in a series of interactive explorations of critical documents of American identity and their role in our lives today: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.
This program aims to foster meaningful and informed discussion around the values that form the basis of our national experience by bringing the conversation back to first principles, to the founding of the American democratic experiment. In doing so, it encourages us to learn more about our shared history and to value and participate in our democracy. To participate, please register below.
More on the program can be found here: https://humanrights.uconn.edu/2022/03/01/dialogues-for-common-ground/
The Democracy & Dialogues Initiative is part of Dodd Human Rights Impact and supported by the Office of Global Affairs, the Office of the Provost, College of Liberal Arts & Sciences, Humanities Institute, UConn Extension, and the Division of Student Affairs’ Parent's Fund.Contact Information: dodd@uconn.edu More
