Join us for a free screening of Immutable, the acclaimed PBS documentary that follows a group of students from the Washington Urban Debate League as they fight to find their voices in a world that too often tries to silence them.

Synopsis: Against the backdrop of a city marked by inequality, these young debaters confront daily challenges that range from housing instability to neurodivergence. For some, debate is a path to college. For others, it's a lifeline.

Following the 90-minute screening, stay for a conversation with Norman Ornstein, renowned political scientist and emeritus scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, and David Trigaux, Executive Director of the Washington Urban Debate League.

This event is free and open to all ages.

Norman Ornstein is one of America's most respected political scientists. A Minnesota native and University of Minnesota graduate, he is an emeritus scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and author of the New York Times bestseller It's Even Worse Than It Looks. His son Matthew inspired the founding of the Matthew Harris Ornstein Summer Debate Institute at WUDL.
