Join us at our headquarters for our monthly meeting: fellowship, support, planning and suggestions to move Craven County forward by electing Democrats to public office.

The meeting starts at 6:30PM.

Linda Monk, New Bern resident and author of numerous books about the U.S. Constitution, will give a presentation on the 150th Anniversary of the 14th Amendment and sign copies of her most recent book, The Bill of Rights: A User’s Guide.

Each attendee will receive a signed copy of the book, included in your $30 ticket price. Silver- and Gold-Level event sponsorships are also available on the ticket purchase page.

The Bill of Rights: A User’s Guide explores the history of the first ten amendments to the Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights. This newly-revised edition, with a foreword by Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, describes the history of each right in the Bill of Rights and explains how the Supreme Court has interpreted those rights. It also tells the stories of many “ordinary” people who have helped keep the Bill of Rights a living document – not just an artifact stored under glass at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. Making the Bill of Rights come alive in our communities is the best way to secure those rights for generations to come. The book also examines the 14th Amendment, which extended new rights of equality to all. The Bill of Rights: A User’s Guide won the American Bar Association’s Silver Gavel Award, its highest honor for public education about the law.
