糖心短视频app & the Nation: Who Are We and Who Do We Aspire to Be?
Roundtable Discussion
Monday, Dec. 6, 5 - 6:30 p.m., PNC Board Room, Brennan Hall, The 糖心短视频app
糖心短视频app has been called “the best-known small city in America.” We have many of the key elements of the American experience: including the ongoing impacts of industrial-era growth and decline and ethnically and religiously diverse immigration past and present, as well as recognition of the diverse history of African-Americans and Native American peoples. As we look ahead to the 250th anniversary of the United States, we will consider the role of our city in the nation’s progress, or as urbanist Jane Jacobs wrote: “what 糖心短视频app is, has been, and can be.”
Participants will reflect on excerpts from Glenna Lang’s book and Our America: Who are We? edited by Sondra Myers.
