Juliet Hooker, noted political scientist, is the author of book, Black Grief/White Grievance: The Politics of Loss (Oct. 2023). Jelani Cobb called it, "every bit as stark and urgent as the moment of racial reckoning that inspired it." Her 2017 book, Theorizing Race in the Americas, won the "Ralph Bunche Book Award" and "Best Book on Race, Ethnicity and Politics" of the American Political Science Association.
Jeff Sharlet's book, The Undertow: Scenes from a Slow Civil War (W.W. Norton, March 2023), was praised in The New York as a "riveting, vividly detailed collage of political and moral derangement in America, one that horrifyingly corresponds to liberals’ worst fears." He also wrote The Family:
The Secret Fundamentalism at the Heart of American Power, and C Street: The Fundamentalist Threat to American Democracy.
Moderator: Libby Post, President of Communication Services and an advocate for the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community. She is the founder of the Empire State Pride Agenda.
