American Politics and Community Today, a Reading & Discussion program at Oneida Public Library

In 2020, a presidential election year, Oneida Public Library is seeking ways to restore civil discourse and involve its Upstate community in mature adult discussions. The Reading and Discussion program sponsored by Humanities New York, “American Politics and Community Today,” will provide provide a perfect platform for discussions based on ideas presented in well-written books on the meaning of citizenship, constitutional and civil rights and participatory democracy. Dr. Thomas A. Murray will guide discussions to reveal the authors’ ideas as applied to today’s political environment and engage participants in sharing their perspectives and experiences as voters and citizens.
