Founding Values: Reflective Patriotism

In collaboration with the Undergraduate Philosophy Club, this event will be a lightly moderated student discussion, with a brief presentation from Paul Carrese about the virtue of "Reflective Patriotism" which will be the topic for discussion. As with all Philosophy Club Meetings, food will be served. 

Organized in partnership with the School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies and the School of Civic and Economic Thought and Leadership.
 

Founding Values is an event series designed for ASU and the surrounding community to distance ourselves from partisan politics and reflect on the values represented in the Declaration of Independence and the United States Constitution.

The semiquincentennial, the 250th anniversary of the nation's founding, offers us a unique and timely opportunity to ask if we are upholding those values, and what we can do as a community to protect those values—if we think that they ought to be protected.

In response to a call for proposed sessions, the Lincoln Center received many timely and important proposals from faculty, students and community members. We are thrilled to be able to offer support for such a diverse set of sessions through the event series.

Founding Values will host six events over three weeks: from April 15 to 28. The event series is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be provided.

Thank you to the Jack Miller Center for funding.
