Life is filled with moments of parts coming together to make a whole. We see this in the branches and constituencies that make up a government, in the flesh, love, and cells that a baby grows from, in the inner-workings of the dishwasher, and so on and on…
Sit back and listen to some of Dr. Patrick Deneen suggestions on how individuals organize in a Democracy, and what that collective looks like. We will explore the possibilities of new media tools for creating a more participatory collective, as well as speak with some students about what Democracy and freedom of individual will means to them.
