Political violence is on the rise in the United States–from high-profile events like January 6, 2021, to the recent assassination attempts against former president Trump, to a much broader surge in threats and violence against election workers, local officials, and other politically targeted communities.
Freedom House trustee Rachel Kleinfeld joins Freedom House interim president Nicole Bibbins Sedaca for a discussion on their recent recent Journal of Democracy piece outlining how America can reverse the trend and mitigate risks related to the upcoming election. The virtual discussion will be moderated by Freedom House’s US democracy director, Mark de la Iglesia.
