Virginian works to elevate the American civic discourse, starting with children
January 1, 2017 /
"We can’t cry and hide in the basement. We’ve got to do something and have that faith in one another."
A small effort that could help heal an election-fractured nation radiates from Charlottesville, Virginia.
On the campus of Thomas Jefferson’s university and in the shadow of his home, Monticello, former social studies teacher Meg Heubeck channels the founding father who sought to unify a nation after a nasty, corrosive election in 1800.
Heubeck wants to resurrect civil discourse. She and her small project aim for a more cooperative America by focusing on those who have yet to vote.
