We’re gathering for the last time in 2026!
We started the year with a discussion about the Declaration of Independence and now we’re coming together to finish the year reflecting on The Declaration of Sentiments, principally authored by Elizabeth Cady Stanton in 1848.
Together we’ll share in food, singing, and meaningful conversations as expressions of our shared core civic values.

The Declaration of Sentiments, also known as the Declaration of Rights and Sentiments, is an argument for women’s rights signed by one-third of the attendees at the first women's rights convention organized by women at Seneca Falls, New York in 1848. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the principal author, modeled the Declaration after the United States Declaration of Independence. Frederick Douglass, who attended the convention and supported the Declaration’s resolutions, hailed the document as the "grand movement for attaining the civil, social, political, and religious rights of women."
