A pop-up civic guestbook · One table. One question. Before labels.
What would you remind an American in 2076?
We’re taking one question around the country, to festivals and markets, and asking everyone who stops by. Every answer is anonymous, and sealed until July 2027.
You can’t answer from here. The table only happens in person, one place at a time.
Why 2076? It’s America’s 300th birthday.
The reveal
Every answer, opened all at once.
In July 2027, the whole record is released, alongside a short film that tries to answer two questions:
Who are we?
What do we believe?
With no pressure to wear a label, the answers become a kind of mirror: the country, reflected back to itself.

Hear from We (ARE) the People
An occasional letter on where the table goes next, what else we’re building, and an announcement when the record opens. Easy to leave.
