• Featuring Fmr. Congressman John Sarbanes, Jasmine Blanks Jones, and Madeline Yates; moderated by Mary Bruce•
How do civic institutions strengthen democracy beyond electoral cycles and political milestones? Join John Sarbanes (Former Maryland Congressman and the SNF Agora Institute's inaugural Distinguished Practitioner in Residence), Madeline Yates (Executive Director, Transform Mid-Atlantic), and Jasmine Blanks Jones (Executive Director, Center for Social Concern, JHU) for a conversation moderated by Mary Bruce (Assistant Director, SNF Agora Institute, JHU). Together, they’ll examine how universities and civic organizations can serve as anchors of democratic resilience. Through practical examples and forward-looking analysis, we'll examine how sustained civic infrastructure and educational initiatives can fortify democratic systems well beyond traditional political timeframes.
This is the final event in our series "First 100 Days, From Home to Abroad," examining the effects of U.S. presidential leadership across the U.S. and beyond, in partnership with the SNF Agora Institute at Johns Hopkins.
