ABOUT | America at 250: Strength, Sacrifice, and the Future of Freedom Webinar - A Journey Through America's Past, Present, and Future

E Pluribus Unum

E Pluribus Unum or “out of many one” was our nation’s guiding principle for over centuries. Once, people came to America chasing something bigger than themselves, the promise of the American Dream and a deep belief in the American way of life. They didn’t just arrive… they assimilated, adopted shared values, and proudly embraced a new, common American identity. 

Today, that idea is being tested in many areas, perhaps none more so than in our immigration and education systems.

Join us for a timely webinar exploring what’s changed, why assimilation matters, and what it means for the future of our communities, schools, and country. Our speakers Jennifer Richmond, Education and National Security Program Deputy Director for the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies and Brandy Shufutinsky, Education and National Security Program Director for the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies will discuss threats, internal and external, that put our core founding principles and nation at risk.

Series Focus

The Spirit of America Past (January - March)

The Spirit of America Present (April - September)

The Spirit of America Future (October - Dec)

April – What Holds a Nation Together? Shared Values in a Changing America

A national discussion about faith, family, culture, responsibility, and the American character.

Themes: trust, social fabric, national identity, generational differences, the importance of re-instilling patriotism in the classroom. Perhaps a view of what we did together as a nation when we were united - won our independence from the world’s superpower, destroyed the institution of slavery, won two world wars, the Cold War and placed a man on the moon. We have much to be proud of that is historically provable

Themes: veterans, reformers, innovators, immigrants, civic courage, shared identity.
