QQQ Former Congresswoman Shirley
Length : 2-3 hours
Chisholm devoted her career in public service to empowering citizens from underrepresented communities by living her message, “If they don’t give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.” What matters to you? What do you bring to the table?
Inspired by historical examples from the Dole Institute and Archives, let’s go inside government and plan your political campaign. Discuss the three branches of government and create a list of what laws affect you and how they impact your daily life.
