‘We the People’: Revolutions for Everyone

‘We the People’: Revolutions for Everyone

Co-hosted by WHYY, the Kislak Center, and the McNeil Center for Early American Studies, this conversation will explore how the Declaration of Independence defined belonging by exclusion, including how communities labeled as outsiders have worked to claim rights, dignity, and opportunity. Participants will learn how ideals of “the people” have been challenged, resisted, and reshaped across generations. Part of America 250 at Penn programming, this event is free and open to the public. Register to attend.

5:30 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Van Pelt-Dietrich Library, 3420 Walnut St.
