E Pluribus Unum? The Divisions Testing American Democracy featuring Danielle Allen

The 2024-25 Jepson Leadership Forum invites scholars and experts to discuss how division and polarization affect American democracy. We will explore how and why divisions have manifested historically and currently in the United States, focusing on their impact on justice, education, politics, culture, technology, and class. 

Are division and the struggle to find common ground making us stronger or tearing us apart? Join us as we search for answers to this and other questions. 

On Sept. 12, 2024, Danielle Allen, James Bryant Conant University Professor at Harvard University and Director of the Allen Lab for Democracy Renovation at Harvard Kennedy School's Ash Center for Democratic Governance and Innovation, presents Justice by Means of Democracy.
