Why did we organize this event?
On January 6th, the US Capitol building, the seat of our democracy, was attacked. This attack was made possible by weeks of verbal assaults against our elections, against the people’s right to vote, and ultimately against American values themselves.
So, both as a celebration of our democracy, and as a rebuke to those who have attacked it, we are excited to bring together some of democracy’s greatest defenders in the US and around the world for an inspiring discussion of how we can renew democracy together. To be sure, we face serious challenges, both in America and around the globe. But we believe that by returning to America’s founding principles, and more fully realizing them for the 21st century, we can reinvigorate our democracy.
