SUMMARY:The Fix: Barbara McQuade in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:5/11/17 Studio portrait of Barbara McQuade for Law School.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Fix: Barbara McQuade in Conversation \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@The Basketball Hall of Fame \n\n\n\n1000 Hall of Fame Ave\, Springfield\, MA  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nPlease note that our events have security screenings. Please do not bring backpacks or large bags. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe New York Times bestselling author\, co-host of the #SistersInLaw podcast\, and former U.S. Attorney will discuss the escalating threat of far-right politics—and a roadmap for preserving our democracy. \n\n\n\nMcQuade draws on her decades of experience as a federal prosecutor to reveal how systems of organized crime and political opportunism exploit the levers of power—using corruption\, cruelty\, and chaos as tools to dominate institutions and eliminate accountability. With clarity\, precision\, and moral force\, she exposes the tactics of today’s far-right: information warfare\, aggressive retribution\, conformism enforced by fear\, and pervasive dismantling of legal checks and balances necessary to defend the public interest and uphold justice. \n\n\n\nWeaving together courtroom stories\, real-time political analysis\, and cautionary lessons from history and democratic backsliding abroad\, McQuade will make the case that the threats we face are not future possibilities—they’re already here- and will outline common-sense reforms and strategies that can reclaim the rule of law and recenter democracy with the power of the people. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonations of $60 or more will receive a FREE copy of the book!
