Your Story is America’s Story!
The challenges and possibilities of this moment will be shaped at the level of community. Every city, neighborhood, and gathering place carries its own stories of hope, struggle, belonging, resilience, and possibility. As America approaches its 250th anniversary, communities across Metro Atlanta are asking not only what America has promised, but what kind of future we are willing to build together.
We Hold These Truths explores what people believe about the American Dream, how that dream has changed over time, and what it would take for all of us to have the right to pursue happiness and the power to experience it.
The We Hold These Truths conversations will take place throughout Metro Atlanta in 2026, with more than 40 events bringing residents together through theater, shared meals, and guided dialogue. These gatherings invite people to share their stories, listen with care, and imagine a future where everyone is seen, heard, valued, and able to thrive.
Your story is America’s story. And together, our stories help shape the larger story of who we are becoming.
Event Highlights:
- A Play: Experience a thought-provoking short play.
- A Conversation: Engage in guided discussion led by trained facilitators, while enjoying light bites and refreshments.
This event is for you if you want to…
- Deepen your understanding of others
- Build community
- Discover ways to take positive action
- Share your lived experience
- Navigate difficult conversations
- Ensure a positive future for your community
