About The Event

Program description:

As the recent election has shown, America has perhaps rarely been divided as we are now. But elections and political parties are surface-level divisions. Our question is about the deep divisions... what's really dividing us and what are the driving forces of those divisions? In this seminar, Dr. Stuart offers his answer in the form of four fundamental experiences of division currently moving American politics. From the status of liberalism to 1619 and MLK to urban and rural politics to God and religion, this seminar will function as a kind of overview and cover a lot of ground quickly. We will deepen more questions than we can answer definitively, but will come away with more clarity and resources for thinking through the greatest problems facing our country and our politics.

Our COVID response for our programs:

Our seminars are designed for the local Austin community to be enriched…
