Join us at the table and explore America's story in the words of those who lived it.

Register for "Reform Movements in America"

September 25, 2024, 8:30 AM MT - 2:15 PM MT | Hosted by: Phoenix Union School District | Phoenix, AZ | Discussion Leader: Adam Seagrave

The Early Republic and Antebellum eras experienced tremendous growth and change in American society during the decades of the American experiment in self-government; including social and religious reform movements. Join the conversation as we explore abolition, temperance, women's rights, and the expansion of government in the early 20th century.

This program will be conducted as a discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings and with Professor Seagrave facilitating the conversation, instead of lecturing or presenting. Registrants, therefore, are highly encouraged to read all the documents in advance and come ready with questions.  Teachers will receive a Letter of Attendance at the conclusion of the seminar.

"It gave me a better understanding of the Founders’ views. They saw that restricting religious liberty is not only wrong; it leads to animosity within society. This year, I will begin both my government class and my class on “Law and Modern Society” with George Washington’s Letter to the Hebrew Congregation at Newport." — Sean B.
