Columbia University. The US Capitol. Minneapolis. Charlottesville. Portland. As the line has blurred between peaceful rallies and violent riots, the protest tradition is at a point of inflection. In today's polarized climate, activists feel that their issue is more desperate and existential, political leaders are less willing to condemn the excesses of their movements, and hate rears its ugly head more freely. Join Gilad Avrahami and Trevor Stern for a discussion about how protest movements define themselves, carve out the unique urgency of their mission, and occasionally overshoot the values that undergird their original purpose.

Conversational, educational, and thought-provoking, How We Got Here connects current events to the longer histories behind them, helping us understand not just what's happening, but why.

Join us on Thursday, October 22 at noon (Eastern) for this live webinar.
