Together, we will engage in both scrutiny and appreciation of this sentence considering what it meant in 1776 and what it means today. Library Director Meredith Bonds-Harmon and City Solicitor Mike Marcello and will facilitate the conversation, inviting participants into a respectful dialogue about language, ideals, and civic responsibility.
