The Democracy We Must Keep with David O. Stewart Online
Join us as we chat with award-winning historian David O. Stewart about his newest work, The Democracy We Must Keep: Seven Founders, Nine Documents, and the Ideas That Shaped America, and the question he explores throughout the book: What did America's founders say about democracy, and can we remain true to their vision for America? As the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary, Stewart urges readers to rediscover core ideas that built the nation—and to consider what it will take to protect them. This talk will give viewers a deeper understanding of how American democracy started, why it still matters, and the active role each generation must play to uphold it.
