What does democracy look like 250 years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence?
Recorded in Philadelphia as the country approaches its 250th anniversary, this special roundtable episode of The Bold & The Brave brings together members of the National Parent Leadership Institute team to reflect on civic learning, youth voice, and the role families play in shaping a more inclusive democracy.
Drawing from conversations at the Civic Learning Forum, the team explores how dialogue across differences, nonpartisan civic participation, and lived experience contribute to stronger communities and more responsive systems.
This conversation looks at how democracy is practiced in everyday life, not only through voting, but through community connection, advocacy, and shared leadership across generations.
Topics discussed include:
- Why civic learning must include families
- The importance of youth voice in shaping the future of democracy
- Dialogue across differences and issue-based participation
- How civic participation happens in everyday spaces
- What the next chapter of democracy could look like
