Wyoming Humanities has announced a unique programming opportunity for communities, libraries, and non-profit organizations across the state.
Fault Lines in the Constitution is a book written by Cynthia and Sanford Levinson that explores the historic document:
| “Each chapter in this timely and thoughtful exploration of the Constitution’s creation begins with a story—all but one of them true—that connects directly back to a section of the document that forms the basis of our society and government. From the award-winning team, Cynthia Levinson, children’s book author, and Sanford Levinson, constitutional law scholar, Fault Lines in the Constitution will encourage exploration and discussion from young and old readers alike.” |
Authors will host a lively discussion, debate, and conversation expanding on the themes found in their book and the U.S. Constitution on Tuesday, May 16th at 6:30pm in Jackson, Wyoming. Wyoming Humanities wants to bring this exciting event to your community in real time via livestream.
