Please join The Village Square and Florida Humanities digitally as we welcome our very special guest Dr. Danielle Allen — Harvard Professor, classicist, and political scientist, and the author of “Our Declaration.”
At a time when the future of American democracy is under threat from across the political spectrum — when a disturbingly high number of citizens seem to no longer believe in the American project — Dr. Allen’s body of work “thrillingly affirms the continuing relevance of America’s founding text, ultimately revealing what democracy actually means and what it asks of us.” Part democracy’s orator and part its master mechanic, Dr. Allen is uniquely equipped to guide us to the other side of our current crisis of faith in democracy.
This important conversation is offered in partnership with Florida Humanities and will be facilitated by Dr. Nashid Madyun, their executive director. We’re also delighted to welcome streaming partners USC Dornsife Center for the Political Future, Common Ground Committee and the Tallahassee Democrat. We thank The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation for their generous support of this program and the Pulitzer Prizes for their partnership.
