The Tanner Lectures with Hahrie Han | Stories of Democracy Realized: Belonging, Becoming, Building | Lecture One: Becoming
What will it take to reinvigorate democratic self-governance—or people-powered democracy—in the United States? In a time of complex and contentious debates about the state of American democracy, these lectures interrogate the way people and communities do (and do not) practice democracy, with a particular focus on Christian faith communities in America, and the relationship of faith, race, and politics.
This lecture examines core principles that shape possibilities for self-governance, focusing on how we understand what we can become together when we work with each other.
"Becoming" is the first of two Tanner Lectures with Hahrie Han.
