Equal Under the Law will look at the history of civil rights in America as a journey of important legal steps and the constant work required to live up to them. This topic explores how the promises of the Constitution were written, how they were put to the test, and why the effort to achieve true equality continues today.

This program will be conducted as a discussion, utilizing primary source documents as the only readings, and with the Discussion Leader facilitating the conversation, instead of lecturing or presenting. Registrants, therefore, are highly encouraged to read all the documents in advance and come ready with questions. Teachers will receive a Letter of Attendance at the conclusion of the seminar.
