Washington DC Big Questions: Is democracy worth saving?

Register here by Thursday, October 17

Democracy, along with many of our cherished ideals, is in peril. Only half of voters take
part in elections, and recent trends indicate that people are becoming more and more comfortable with authoritarianism. Are we just unwilling—or truly unable—to engage in the hard work of making change, and how does this differ at the local and national levels? Join us for a conversation about salvaging democracy, and what happens if we don’t. Featuring Professor Adrienne Christiansen, political science, andMinh Ta ’97, Vice President, Global Government Affairs at The Carlyle Groupin conversation with President Brian Rosenberg.
