The George Washington Presidential Library at Mount Vernon is excited to partner with More Perfect and the Listen First Project to host the 2025 Founding Debates Program. This year's theme is Bridging Divides, from the Founding to today.
Dr. Lindsay Chervinsky will moderate a conversation with John Wood Jr., Liz Joyner, David McCullough III, and Sam Feist on their work bridging divides in local communities, national politics, and in the media to strengthen our social fabric and democracy.
The evening will culminate with the inaugural awarding of the George Washington Unity Prize from Listen First Project. The prize will celebrate teams of community members from different geographic communities in America who are walking a patriot’s path—following in the footsteps of George Washington himself.
