General Meeting Feat. Kevin C. O’Leary: THE REPUBLICANS’ CRUSADE AGAINST LIBERALISM
June 21, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
THE REPUBLICANS’ CRUSADE AGAINST LIBERALISM Guest speaker: Kevin C. O’Leary, Scholar & Journalist
Join us to hear journalist and scholar Kevin C. O’Leary argue that the contemporary Republican Party is waging a counterrevolution against the core beliefs of the nation. With insights from his book Madison’s Sorrow: Today’s War on the Founders and America’s Liberal Ideal, he tells the story of America’s liberal heritage and the political revolution poised against it that has surfaced alarming impulses to embrace inequality and exclusion. He argues that the modern GOP has unleashed an illiberal, reactionary crusade against the ideals of the Founders. In short, he will explain why America is facing a slow-motion coup and shocking disloyalty by the Republican Party.
Kevin C. O’Leary is a journalist and political scientist. He is a research fellow at the Center of the Study of Democracy at UCI and professor in the Political Science Department at Chapman University. As a journalist, he was the lead West Coast reporter for TIME, a reporter for the Los Angeles Times, editor of OC Metro magazine and editorial page editor of the Pasadena Star-News. A Phi Beta Kappa graduate of UCLA, he was a CORO Fellow before earning his Ph.D. at Yale.
Masks will be required for all attendees. Everyone attending must be fully vaccinated for COVID-19.
