Discussing America’s shared story, Washington, D.C., Oct. 29 (private)
October 29, 2025 @ 9:30 am - 4:00 pm
I’ll be joining a panel to guide the discussion of the United States’ shared national story at New America in Washington, D.C. the morning of Oct. 29. To attend this event — part of New America’s US@250th initiative — in person you need an invitation, but it’s freely available as a livestream that day. The event is titled “The Us@250 Experience: Building a new American Future” and registration information and details on the speakers and panels can be found here.
