The State of Our Union
What does it mean to be American today?
Let’s not mince words—America's differences are real. It can be easy to to become disheartened and frustrated, but instead of dwelling on everything that is wrong, Chicago Ideas is turning to experts and thought leaders who are pushing for progress.
Our opening night program will lift up the voices of impactful civic-minded leaders who, through their work, are searching for shared truths and defining what it means to be American—what binds us together, what divides us and what the future holds for our nation.
