Dear John, We have been very busy and have so much exciting news to share with you! Join us for our upcoming virtual WAVE Action Team event! We are honored that will be joined by Joshua Horwitz, J.D., the Executive Director of the Educational Fund to Stop Gun Violence. In the wake of the January attack on the U.S. Capitol and the ongoing threat from insurrectionists, Josh will be explaining the connections between the gun lobby and the insurrectionist idea--a topic he has been exploring since co-authoring the book, Guns, Democracy and the Insurrectionist Idea, published in 2009. Over the past few days, we have witnessed again the harrowing scenes from the U.S. Capitol, leaving us wondering, "How did this happen? How can we make sure it never happens again?" Join us for this important discussion. What: Guns, Democracy, and the Insurrectionist Idea: Unpacking the Chaos at the Capitol
When: Tuesday, February 23, 2021, at 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm CST
