Citizen Justice in Georgetown

The City Tavern Club Preservation Foundation presents a discussion about US Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. 

Join a book discussion and signing with M. Margaret McKeown presented by The City Tavern Club Preservation Foundation on November 5, 2022 from 6:30 pm to 8:00 pm. 

McKeown's critically acclaimed book, Citizen Justice reminds us that the C&O Canal in our back yard, and so important to Georgetown and the communities that border it was almost lost save for the advocacy of US Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas. 

Perhaps remembered for many other things: four wives, as a potential vice presidential nominee, the target of impeachment proceedings and for his tenure as the longest-serving justice on the court, his most enduring legacy is his advocacy for the environment.

Tickets are free. Reserve a spot here.  

City Tavern Club is located at 3206 M Street in Georgetown.
