U.S. Democracy is at a critical juncture. The institutions and rights that gird our democratic society, from universities to media to protest, to a pluralistic and diverse society, are under consistent and pressing attack. Central to these attacks is the targeting of free expression and a free press.
In the PEN World Voices Festival’s urgent opening event, PEN America Co-CEO Summer Lopez will convene leading voices Judith Butler, Molly Jong-Fast, Eddie Glaude, and Phil Klay to discuss the health of our democracy, where we are now, and where we are going.
