Yesterday, we were honored to be joined by Senator Cory Booker and NPR's Tom Ashbrook for a powerful Getting to the Point program. I
The Edward M. Kennedy Institute strives to encourage participatory democracy, invigorate civil discourse, and inspire the next generation of citizens and leaders to engage in the civic lives of their own communities. The subtitle of the Senator's book, United, is "Thoughts on Finding Common Ground and Advancing the Common Good", something that we aim to accomplish with our public programming series.
As Senator Booker said last night, “We have work to do in this country and if you care, if you live passionately, if you believe in the ideals of this nation and see what is going on...sometimes you are going to feel overwhelmed. But don't let your inability to do everything undermine your determination to do something."
