People For supporter,

Throughout history we’ve witnessed the power that books and literature
have to inspire, power movements, and indeed change the trajectory of
nations. It also comes as no surprise that those who oppose progress and
change often seek to limit the public's freedom to learn, and filter what
information they think is most appropriate – efforts much like those we’ve
seen from far-right politicians across the country.

It is in that spirit of promoting literature and the freedom to learn, and
connecting our members with some of our movement’s most impactful authors,
that People For is excited to announce the launch of our very own Book
Club – debuting with Rep. Jamie Raskin’s book “Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth,
and the Trials of American Democracy.”

for this exciting event – and the first of many in a new series hosted by
People For! >>

During the Book Club discussion I’ll be joined by Rep. Jamie Raskin to
discuss his book, along with People For Executive Director Svante Myrick.
Rep. Raskin’s book, Unthinkable, is a memoir that details an unimaginable
time in the congressman’s life: the painful loss of his son to suicide,
living through the violent insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, and leading
the impeachment proceedings against former President Trump to hold him
accountable for inciting the violence that day.

Rep. Raskin’s gripping and page-turning account lays bare a father’s
journey with grief while also leading a nation through one of our
country’s darkest days.

If you’d like to read Unthinkable in advance of our discussion, you can
purchase a copy of Rep. Raskin’s book at your favorite local retailer or
wherever books are sold.

[ [link removed] ]RSVP today to join us in what is sure to be a moving and informative
conversation with Rep. Raskin >>

The new People For the American Way Book Club will be a monthly series
featuring live virtual conversations with the authors – we expect to
announce additional authors in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!

We look forward to having you join us.

Ben Jealous, President
