This series of classes is part of New York Historical Society’s Citizenship Project initiative, and while NY and TX can feel like two different countries, they are, in fact, both part of these United States. That’s one of the many things you’ll learn in this class that focuses on reading, writing, and vocabulary that will help you answer citizenship questions as well as interview prep. The irony that we have to rely on the “coastal elites” to teach us the basics of being a good citizen is not lost on us. Register online in advance. – James RenovitchWednesdays through Oct. 8
