Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times: In Conversation
About this Event
Join us for a conversation with Skye Perryman, CEO of Democracy Forward and Jonathan Capehart, a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and co-host of The Weekend on MS NOW, to discuss Perryman's new book "Ordinary People, Extraordinary Times" and how the future of our country lies in all of our hands.
From protecting voting rights and public schools to finding courage in the face of fear, Perryman makes the case that defending democracy isn’t the job of lawyers or politicians alone—it’s a role for every one of us.
Drawing on her frontline experience challenging threats to democracy in courtrooms across the nation, Perryman combines gripping personal stories with practical “how-to” guides that empower people to take action in their own communities. Her insight shows that the path forward begins not in the halls of power but at our kitchen tables, in our neighborhoods, and through the everyday choices we make to speak up, build community, and protect our future.
Our hope is that each attendee will leave with a heart full of inspiration, new insight to take action, and an understanding that Together We Rise.
Our friends at Edgartown Books will be on hand with copies of Skye’s book available for purchase, and Skye will be available to sign books following the discussion.
This Event is Free of Charge with Limited Seating. Please Reserve your General Admission Seat. Street parking in the area is limited, so please plan ahead and allow extra time for parking and arrival.
