Description
Civic literacy is at an all-time low. The majority of Americans agree that the ideals of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are essential to K-12 education. Parents and leaders of civil society are joining forces to ensure our children understand the function and role of the American government and civil society. Join us for a candid discussion that highlights modern trends toward the teaching of revisionist history, and action civics—promoting political activism to our youth. Scholars and advocacy experts will give a chilling account of our past failures to fight bad curricula and its devastating impact. Make sure to participate in this forum to learn the practical steps you can take toward preserving and transmitting our American story to the next generation.
