Do you value engaged neighbors, constitutional literacy, and civic leadership?
Join Maryland Public Television (MPT) and the Maryland Civic Education Coalition online to explore the critical role of civic education in today’s society. In PBS Retro Report’s Citizen Nation, teenagers across America face off in the nation’s premier civics competition, We the People. Culminating in a championship showdown in the nation’s capital, high school students with diverse personal and political backgrounds grapple with critical questions about democracy. On Monday, March 10 at 7 PM, participants will watch parts of Citizen Nation and engage with expert panelists about how civic learning strengthens democracy.
This is a virtual event centering Maryland voices.
Participants interested in strengthening civics may join from any of the 50 states and U.S. territories.
