The First at 250
In partnership with Disagree Better and the National Constitution CenterGovernors Spencer Cox and Josh Shapiro on free expression, civil dialogue and America’s first freedom
Join Gov. Spencer Cox (R-UT) and Gov. Josh Shapiro (D-PA) for an honest, lively conversation about the ideas that unite and divide us — and why how we talk to each other matters more than ever. Set against the backdrop of America's 250th birthday, this landmark evening brings together two leaders for a candid fireside chat on the First Amendment, free expression, and how we can rekindle values at the heart of our democracy by learning to disagree better.
This event is presented by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation in partnership with Disagree Better and the National Constitution Center, in celebration of America's 250th anniversary. Join us starting at 5:30 pm for a reception with live music by Artistas y Músicos Latino Americanos. The program begins at 6:30 pm.
