Citizenship is central to many of today's most pressing constitutional debates, from proposals to end birthright citizenship and add a citizenship question to the census, to questions over the future of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) policy. Illuminating all sides of these issues, Jaya Ramji-Nogales of Temple University, John Eastman of Chapman University, and Ruth Wasem of the University of Texas at Austin explore what it means to be a citizen today and consider the ways that citizenship is intertwined with core American values. This panel, presented in partnership with the Philadelphia Museum of Art and in conjunction with the exhibit And Europe Will Be Stunned, was moderated by National Constitution Center President and CEO Jeffrey Rosen and the NCC’s new Vice President of Content and Development, Sheldon Gilbert.
