Is our society simultaneously agitated and monotonous? De Tocqueville thought so. Is this still true today, and how does that dichotomy affect civic education?
How can we inspire youth to engage with civic education and why is this crucial to preserve our liberty?

Constitutional Chats are hosted by Janine Turner, Cathy Gillespie, student ambassadors, and experts who join us weekly to discuss hot-topic issues! The audience is not on camera, but you may ask questions!
