Empowering a Nation of Student Civic Leaders
March 10 @ 7:00 pm
Do you value engaged neighbors, constitutional literacy, and civic leadership?
Join Maryland Public Television (MPT) and the Maryland Civic Education Coalition 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 Tuesday, March 10, participants will watch clips of Citizen Nation and engage with expert panelists about how civic learning strengthens democracy. Additionally, attendees will:
- Explore the connection between civic learning and democratic engagement.
- Interact with a diverse panel of experts, including both youth and adult voices.
- Consider possible action steps for themselves or their community to amplify civic learning.
