Dear John,
Billions of dollars have poured into efforts to strengthen democracy in recent months. Now that Election Day has finally arrived, weâre all anticipating the results and wondering whatâs next for the United States. No matter the electionâs outcome, the upheaval caused by the pandemic, its economic fallout, and the nationâs political divide is likely to remain with us for some time. How should philanthropy respond to ensure Americaâs democracy serves all citizens well in the decades ahead? Join the Chronicle of Philanthropy in partnership with the Kettering Foundation and the Knight Foundation for Reimagining Democracy, a two-part discussion that coincides with the publication of a collection of essays on American democracy, commissioned by the foundations. On Monday, November 9 at 2 PM ET, Iâll be moderating a conversation with several of the essayists: - Cathy Cohen, University of Chicago
- Yuval Levin, American Enterprise Institute and National Affairs
- Daniel Rothschild, Mercatus Center at George Mason University
I hope youâll register now so you can join our free session, Reimagining Democracy: Philanthropyâs Long-Term Role. I look forward to taking your questions as part of this important conversation. All my best,
