SUMMARY:Our Movements Are Only as Strong as Our People
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an unforgettable night of conversation\, insight\, and reflection as we welcome acclaimed author-journalists M. Gessen and Paola Ramos\, as well as creator of the 1619 Project\, Nikole Hannah-Jones\, in conversation with Marguerite Casey Foundation (MCF) president and CEO Dr. Carmen Rojas\, onstage at the Symphony Space in NYC. \nOrganized people power is the antidote to authoritarianism. From attacks on immigrants to attacks on the judiciary\, independent media\, and universities\, we’re living through a moment where authoritarian forces are reshaping not only government but also civil society. Challenging autocratic rule will depend on our ability to seed a different vision of humanity—one that’s based on care\, solidarity\, and a refusal to accept this current political moment as normal. \nHear from our panelists about how authoritarianism can be defeated by organizing around shared struggles\, tethering hope to action\, and winning the world we know is possible.
