Natural Rights

Participants will consider the influence Enlightenment thinkers had on the founders and how these principles manifest in several founding documents, such as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Join us as Adam Seagrave, from Arizona State University, takes a closer look into the text of these documents and examines the philosophical context in which these texts were written. Kevin Cline, a member of the Center's Teacher Advisory Council, will demonstrate how the Center’s resources on natural rights can be implemented for classroom use.
