Grateful for @CarnegieCorp ‘s longstanding support for civic education and specifically the work of @CivXNow This report provides perspective on how far the civic learning movement has come over 2 decades & a blueprint for further progress as the nation nears its 250th birthday.

Please join me in supporting the critical work of @SPLC to defend students’ press freedoms. SPLC has led this charge for 50 years, and the cause is more important than ever before.
