Eric Liu in Conversation With Wendy Willis
May 8, 2019 @ 7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
FreeWhat does it mean to be an engaged American in today’s divided political landscape, and how do we restore hope in our country? In a collection of “civic sermons,” popular advocate for active citizenship Eric Liu takes on these thorny questions and provides inspiration and solace in a time of anger, fear, and dismay. Become America (Sasquatch) features 19 stirring explorations of current and timeless topics about democracy, liberty, equal justice, and powerful citizenship. Liu will be joined for a Q&A by Wendy Willis, author of These Are Strange Times, My Dear: Field Notes From the Republic.
