Abstract
In anticipation of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence on July 4th, 2026, the Lindenwood community gathered to give voice to these founding documents. This collective reading is an invitation to reflect, to question, and to participate in the ongoing work of civil discourse. These texts are not only records of the past; they continue to shape our present and inform our future. The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights endure as living documents guiding our nation and the conversations that define it.
