We The People of Brunswick County held its monthly meeting
on Tuesday, September 18, 6:30 pm at the St. James Community Center on Rt. 211 in Southport, NC. The meeting had special guest speakers to celebrate the 225th birthday
of the U. S. Constitution. One of the speakers was St. James resident,
Dick Powell. Dick's talk was titled: "Miracle in Philadelphia: The
Making and Meaning of the Constitution". He gave a
behind-the-scenes look at the creation of our Constitution during the summer
of 1787 in Philadelphia, the principles embodied in our founding documents,
and why they are still relevant today. Judge Marion Warren spoke about the NC Constitution. Free copies of the Declaration of
Independence and Constitution were available at the meeting.
