October 24, 2019, Richmond, What are American Values?
October 24, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm

What are American Values?
What does America stand for?
What does it mean to be patriotic? Or unpatriotic?
In this Make Shift Coffee House we will discuss those and related questions.
As with all Make Shift Coffee Houses, this will not be a debate. We aim to learn about and understand each other’s political views, talk with our neighbors, and enjoy good company.
