A Constitution for a Diverse Nation
Sept. 26, 2025
The United States Constitution was written in 1787 by a vast majority of white men. Did the American Constitution leave room for diversity from the start? In this episode of “The Civic Discourse Project” lecture series, Michael D. Barone, a senior political analyst, examines the Constitution’s impact on federalism, American pluralism and race. Barone iterates that America was a diverse nation from the start and goes in depth on how the Constitution factors in diversity and its challenges on U.S. citizens.
