Moving Forward: Foundations for a New Progressive Era
Sponsored by the Center for American Progress and the Progressive Book Club, "Moving Forward: Foundations for a New Progressive Era," brings together leading writers and policy experts in a unique in-person and online discussion forum for Americans to learn, connect, and debate progressive ideas.
The series will examine a range of issues emerging from the intersection of history, philosophy, political theory and public policy. Each event will feature a different topic, author, and moderator with live and online audiences ready to debate and discuss the issues raised. Additional online content over time will include author interviews, videos, webinars and links to supporting content and activism resources hosted by CAP, PBC, and other partner organizations.
