About the event

As we look toward the 250th anniversary of the United States, join the Stagville Descendants Council for a community discussion exploring the three constitutional amendments that redefined the American promise.

Often called the nation's "Second Founding," the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments expanded the concepts of freedom, citizenship, and voting rights. This program will examine the history of these landmark changes and their lasting impact on our democracy today. Come share your perspective as we discuss how these pillars of the Constitution continue to shape our collective story.
