The Nevada Scholars Strategy Network, the Center for Community Change, Make the Road NV, 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ People Power, and 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Sociology Club are excited to host an evening of learning, networking, and collective imagination focused on safeguarding U.S. democracy in Nevada and beyond. This event is designed to bring students and faculty together with community members and organizers who want to learn about election administration in our state and at the federal level and think through how to create and support durable democratic institutions and processes that can withstand threats wherever and however they may originate.
Location: Beverly Rogers Literature and Law Building (RLL) 101, 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ campus, Las Vegas, NV
Date: Thursday, Oct 17, 2024, 4:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.
Please join us for an open reception (4 p.m.), a teach-in featuring scholars of democracy from the 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ community (4:15 - 5:15 p.m.), the introduction of a scenario-based experimental game developed by Community Change partners that lets participants act out different threats to democracy and imagine responses (5:30 - 6:30 p.m.), and a hosted happy hour (6:30 - 7:30 p.m.). We welcome participants for any portion of the evening or our entire program!
