When the U.S. sneezes, the rest of the world catches a cold. As the U.S. approaches what is arguably the most important election of our lives, we can only wonder what the effect will be if an autocrat is elected president. Join Democrats Abroad on July 10th, at 11am Eastern as HeatherCoxRichardson discusses our current political situation in the context of history.
About the speaker:
Heather Cox Richardson is an author and historian. She has written about the Civil War, Reconstruction, the Gilded Age, and the American West in award-winning books whose subjects stretch from the European settlement of the North American continent to the history of the Republican Party through the Trump administration. She is the author, most recently, of the best-selling Democracy Awakening: Notes on the State of America. Jane Mayer has called the book “a vibrant, and essential history of America's unending, enraging and utterly compelling struggle since its founding to live up to its own best ideals.” Heather Richardson’s work has appeared in the Washington Post, the New York Times, and The Guardian, among other outlets. Her nightly newsletter, Letters from an American, reaches over a million readers.
