SUMMARY:Nationalism and Democracy: Then-Vs-Now
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a powerful and thought-provoking conversation as we welcome Dr. Kenja McCray\, author of Essential Soldiers: Women Activists and Black Power Leadership\, as part of our Unseen Revolution series\, aligned with the America250 and Georgia250 initiatives. \nThis engaging program will explore the evolving impact of nationalism and democracy from the Revolutionary era to\npresent day. Through the lens of Black women’s activism and leadership\, Dr. McCray will examine how the promises of\ndemocracy have been challenged\, expanded\, and redefined over time and where gaps still remain. Together\, we will reflect on the question: Has democracy evolved to include all voices\, or are we still striving toward that ideal? Don’t miss this opportunity to engage in meaningful dialogue that uncovers overlooked histories and connects past struggles to present-day conversations about identity\, power\, and belonging. \nFree and open to the public. All are welcome \nThis program is funded by an America250 grant from Georgia Humanities.
