The Pulse of Democracy 2024—Assessing the Health of Our Body Politic


Adult Enrichment / Contemporary Issues & History -
Spring 2024

Recent history and politics have felt like an ambush to engaged citizens. Where does our democracy seem to be headed? As we approach another national election, this course will take a deeper look at American history to gain a better understanding of the bewildering and terrifying events happening in our country. We will use the historical themes explored in The Plot Against America by Philip Roth as a lens for understanding where we are now and where we may be going.
