“HOW JOE BIDEN CAN WIN.” This is a two-lecture series April 27 + May 4. Here’s the details: Joe Biden is a former US Senator and a former Vice-President. Now he is about to become the oldest major-party nominee for the Presidency in US history. He was first elected to the US Senate in 1972, and half a century later he seeks to become America’s 46th President. Can he do it? This two-lecture series maps out the pathway forward for Biden and more broadly for the Democratic Party as it seeks to regain leadership on a national level. Biden can win and so can the party, and these are the key essential steps in the journey. There are five levels of registration for these lectures, starting at FREE and working their way up.

“VOTING IN AMERICA: PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE.” This is a two-lecture series May 5 + May 12. Here’s the details: Since the nation’s beginning, the right to vote in America has been controlled by powerful white men and used as a weapon against racial minorities, women, younger, and lower-income Americans. We as a nation have made progress, but the struggle continues and it is fierce as we enter the second decade of the 21st century. What is the role of the federal government? What are the state laws that hinder or advance voting rights? In these two lectures, we’ll look back in time, forward in time, and discuss pathways to action to overcome voter suppression.
