The League of Women Voters of Orange, Durham, and Chatham counties is hosting a lecture series on "The State of Our Democracy."
With the 2020 elections behind us and its aftermath still playing out, what better time is there to take stock of the condition of our democracy? Six scholars will explore the roots of our democracy, past and present pressures on our system, and its resiliency.
This timely series is free and open to the entire NC League membership, our partner organizations, and the public. The lectures will be held virtually over a five-week period starting April 7. For information on the speakers and to register for one or more event, visit this website. You can also register by clicking on the title in the schedule below.
