Aspen Ideas: A shared civic gospel

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. 250 years on, are these words still guiding us?

The Declaration of Independence marked the start of our American Experiment. Does that document still hold central tenets of who we are as a nation? Deep political polarization has made that question murkier than perhaps ever before. 

We reflect on what a shared civic gospel looks like for America today and what role faith plays in that search.
