Life, Liberty & Happiness with Jonathan Turley

Join the Valentine and Library of Virginia on Religious Freedom Day for the return of Life, Liberty & Happiness. This lecture series explores the evolution and continuing relevance of America’s founding philosophies.
Our featured speaker will be Jonathan Turley, law professor, columnist, television analyst and litigator. In his forthcoming book, "Rage and the Republic: The Unfinished Story of the American Revolution," Turley explores how the unique origins of American democracy set it apart from other revolutions, whether it can survive and thrive in the 21st century and how the unfinished story of the revolution will play out in a rapidly changing world.
This event will be hosted at the Library of Virginia at 800 E. Broad Street. Visitors can park in the Library of Virginia’s garage or find street parking. The Library of Virginia is also a quick two block walk from the Valentine.
