BOSTON - PennZone -- The Dock C. Bracy Center for Human Reconciliation today announces its October event of the Let's Talk Series. On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, 7-9 pm EDT (UTC-4), David Pepper will present Let's Talk Series: Saving Democracy in the Short- and Long-Term.
Please join us via Zoom on Wednesday, October 16, 2024, 7-9 pm EDT (UTC-4) for Let's Talk Series: Saving Democracy in the Short- and Long-Term.
Every presidential cycle, the narrative is the same. This Presidential election is the key to saving democracy. Four years later, the same narrative repeats, but of late, democracy never feels any safer.
David Pepper has written two books explaining the deeper battle against democracy that has been playing out for decades, damaging key safeguards for democracy at levels and in places that are too often overlooked. Once you understand that that is the true front line in the battle for democracy, the need to have a broader and deeper battle to save democracy--beyond even presidential and US Senate elections--becomes paramount. Pepper will walk through that deeper strategy.
David Pepper, Lawyer, Writer, Political Activist, Former Elected Official, Adjunct Professor and Author of Laboratories of Autocracy (St. Helena Press 2021) and Saving Democracy (St. Helena Press 2023), Senior Fellow, Kettering Foundation.
David Pepper is a lawyer, writer, democracy activist, former elected official, and adjunct professor, and served as the Chairman of the Ohio Democratic Party between 2015 and 2021.
His recent non-fiction works dissect the attack on democracy taking place in states like Ohio, and guide everyday citizens on steps they can take to lift democracy. Pepper's book Laboratories of Autocracy (St. Helena Press 2021) has been called "arguably the most important" recent book on American democracy by Salon Magazine, and his follow-up book Saving Democracy: A User's Manual (2023) has been widely praised and featured on MSNBC, CNN, C-SPAN and other networks.
