The Gatherings Initiative Presents: "What Happened to Our Country?"

To explore this question, The Gatherings Initiative presents journalist and author Sasha Abramsky.

Abramsky drew from research for his new book Jumping at Shadows: The Triumph of Fear and the End of the American Dream.   He discusses the current political situation and how we can fight the consequences of the President’s radical agenda that continues to widen inequality in the US.   Learn how you can effectively bring about change that will integrate equity into the social, economic, and political systems that affect people's everyday lives.

Delaine Eastin, California's former State Superintendent of Public Instruction and the only woman to hold that office, will open the event.

These presentations are followed by a panel discussion, moderated by Davis City Councilmember Lucas Frerichs.

Recorded by Davis Media Access on Sunday, June 11, 2017 at the Davis Senior Center.
