Whether inspiring, maddening, confusing or shocking, politics in California are never dull. Our state has always marched to its own drum and been a place to try new things. And our government and politics have always been part of that. The effects of our experiments over the past 170 years continue to affect us – and the rest of the country – in profound and sometimes surprising ways. Dr. Barbara Stone, Emeritus Professor of Political Science at CSU Fullerton will be the Orange County Historical Society’s featured speaker on Thursday, Sept. 9, 2021, at 7:30p.m., at Trinity Episcopal Church, 2400 N. Canal St., Orange. She will be looking at the scope of California’s political history with an emphasis on Orange County’s role.
