The first forum in the new series, the State of Our Constitution, packed the Historic Chowan County Court House April 23.

The crowd heard John Hood, former N.C. Supreme Court Justice Bob Orr, Raleigh attorney Gene Boyce, Barton college historian Jeff Broadwater, and Wake Forest political scientist John Dinan discuss the state constitution and the power to tax.
