How do you think about civic duty? Do we have responsibilities as citizens? Are they optional?
Join KUT News for networking and a conversation with "1A's" Jenn White exploring how our individual civic duty contributes to how well our democracy works. The conversation will be recorded for potential later use in a national broadcast of "1A."
This community conversation is part of KUT’s participation in the "1A Remaking America” project, a two-year collaborative effort examining the local causes and effects of a nationally growing distrust in institutions — and KUT News' weeklong "Civics 101" reporting and events series.
