An America Divided: Can We Live With One Another? With New Yorker Staff Writer, Emma Green
Tuesday, March 14
7:30—9:00 PM
Zoom
Join Emma Green in this exploration of the ways that Americans are divided - politically, religiously, economically, within our communities, and even families. What has caused these ruptures and what are some ways for us to come back together? Pulling from the many, many people she has spoken to over the years, as well as her articles on the Federalist Society, the Supreme Court, and Affirmative Action, Emma will lead us in this difficult but essential discussion.
Emma Green is a staff writer at The New Yorker who covers education and academia. She was previously a staff writer at The Atlantic, where she covered religion and politics, and where she also served as managing editor.
