Freedom is our great American challenge. What exactly is freedom and how do we keep it?

Skirball Cultural Center

Freedom is our great American challenge. What exactly is freedom and how do we keep it? Political commentator and historian Timothy Snyder, internationally renowned expert on the rise of authoritarianism and fascism in Central and Eastern Europe in the 20th Century and beyond, asks what freedom means in his new book.On Freedom explains in the brilliant way that only he can, what liberty does and does not entail. The question of what freedom means rings throughout the book. What could be more relevant now? For years, throughout so many of his great books (such as On Tyranny; Bloodlands; Black Earth; and others) Snyder has been warning us about the fragility of freedom, and what we can and must do to retain it and to reclaim it. And he is clear that it's now or never.Moderator to be announced.Limited parking onsite. We recommend rideshares and carpooling.
