Personhood: How do our amendments define it?

Crossing Party Lines

Location: Online

As we wrap up Black History Month, let’s take some time to look at the evolution of what it has meant to be a “person” in the United States.

What beliefs have informed the various perspectives on whose lives, liberty, happiness, and opinions matter?
What values are reflected in the way our system has awarded rights and privileges according to characteristics such as race, gender, and age?
Have we finally achieved equality for all? And if not, in what ways are some of us unequal?
Join the Crossing Party Lines discussion and have a voice in our Nation’s Conversation! People of all views are welcomed, appreciated, and heard.

Please do your best to arrive at the beginning of the meeting – once we are in breakout rooms and the conversations have started, the meeting doors close to new arrivals. The breakout rooms open (and the doors close) approximately 15 minutes after the hour.

We would love to hear your thoughts on our social media pages. Don’t miss topic announcements, updates, news! Follow us on:
