Description:

Please join a fascinating -- and cost free -- discussion between an award-winning journalist and four U.S. ambassadors on the ways that the Trump Administration is undermining the foundations of American democracy and prosperity. The diplomats will share their first-hand experience with democratically- elected leaders overseas who drove their countries into tyranny and economic ruin. Their stories will show that the same dangerous trends are already happening here in the United States.

Moderator: Jon Lee Anderson

Panelists: Ambassador John Feeley, Ambassador Eric Rubin, Ambassador Harry Thomas, and Ambassador Marie Yovanovitch.
