Charlotte’s Civic Conversation Series presents
Freedom and Responsibility: What We Owe Each Other

Americans have always argued, debated, quibbled and disagreed.

Disagreement between figures like Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson over federal power and individual rights set the template for debates the country is still having today — an essential component to our democracy rather than a threat to it. Public Square brings that tradition to Charlotte, modeling the kind of civil discourse the current moment demands.

Public Square is brought to you through a generous partnership with the Morton and Durham Families and supported by Elon University School of Law, Foundation For The Carolinas, and WFAE.
