On Monday, September 14 at 7 p.m. the Hudson Library & Historical Society will host a live virtual streaming event with E. D. Hirsch, author of How to Educate a Citizen: The Power of Shared Knowledge to Unify a Nation. In this powerful manifesto, the bestselling author of Cultural Literacy addresses the failures of America’s early education system and its impact on our current national malaise, advocating for a shared knowledge curriculum students everywhere can be taught, an educational foundation that can help improve and strengthen America’s unity, identity, and democracy.

E. D. Hirsch, Jr. is the founder and chairman of the Core Knowledge Foundation and professor emeritus of education and humanities at the University of Virginia. He is the author of several acclaimed books on education, including the New York Times bestseller Cultural Literacy, The Schools We Need, The Knowledge Deficit, The Making of Americans, and Why Knowledge Matters.

Copies of How to Educate a Citizen will be available for purchase courtesy of the Learned Owl Book Shop. Registration for this program is required and a valid email address is required at time of registration. Participants will receive an email invitation to attend the program, hosted on Zoom, a day before the program begins.
