Progressive political commentator Brian Tyler Cohen—a YouTuber, host of the “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen” podcast, and MSNBC contributor—explains how American politics has turned into a dire situation, and what can be done about it, in his debut book, Shameless: Republicans’ Deliberate Dysfunction and the Battle to Preserve Democracy.

In Shameless, which includes a foreword by Rep. Jamie Raskin, Cohen offers an unflinching narrative that illuminates the realities and dangers of the ever-widening gulf between the vaunted Republican brand and their actual behavior, and the role mainstream media has played in normalizing it.

In a conversation moderated by Shaniqua McClendon, the Vice President of Politics for Crooked Media, Cohen will be joined by host of MSNBC’s “Inside with Jen Psaki” and former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki to unpack what lessons Democrats can glean from a clear-eyed view of the current state of affairs and the steps to take to rebalance our political landscape. Psaki is the author of the New York Times bestseller, Say More: Lessons from Work, the White House, and the World

$Anne Lamott — Somehow - with Marion Winik Watch author Anne Lamotts book talk and reading at a Politics and Prose event in Washington, D.C. PURCHASE BOOK HERE: https://www.politics-prose.com/book/9780593714416 In Somehow: Thoughts on Love, Lamott explores the transformative power that love has in our lives: how it surprises us, forces us to confront uncomfortable truths, reminds us of our humanity, and guides us forward. “Love just wont be pinned down,” she says. “It is in our very atmosphere” and lies at the heart of who we are. We are, Lamott says, creatures of love. In each chapter of Somehow, Lamott refracts all the colors of the spectrum. She explores the unexpected love for a partner later in life. The bruised (and bruising) love for a child who disappoints, even frightens. The sustaining love among a group of sinners, for a community in transition, in the wider world. The lessons she underscores are that love enlightens as it educates, comforts as it energizes, sustains as it surprises. Somehow is Anne Lamott’s twentieth book, and in it she draws from her own life and experience to delineate the intimate and elemental ways that love buttresses us in the face of despair as it galvanizes us to believe that tomorrow will be better than today. Full of the compassion and humanity that have made Lamott beloved by millions of readers, Somehow is classic Anne Lamott: funny, warm, and wise. Anne Lamott is the author of the New York Times bestsellers Dusk, Night, Dawn; Almost Everything; Hallelujah Anyway; Small Victories; Stitches; Help, Thanks, Wow; Some Assembly Required; Grace (Eventually); Plan B; and Traveling Mercies, as well as several novels. A past recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship and an inductee to the California Hall of Fame, she lives in Northern California. “Love is our only hope,” Anne Lamott writes in this perceptive new book. “It is not always the easiest choice, but it is always the right one, the noble path, the way home to safety, no matter how bleak the future looks.” Lamott is in conversation with University of Baltimore professor, Marion Winik. Winik is the author of The Big Book of the Dead, First Comes Love, Above Us Only Sky and many other books of memoir and personal essay. Her award-winning Bohemian Rhapsody column appears monthly at BaltimoreFishbowl.com, and her essays have been published in The New York Times Magazine, The Sun, and elsewhere. She writes book reviews for People, Newsday, the Washington Post, and Kirkus Reviews, and hosts the NPR podcast The Weekly Reader. She was a commentator on All Things Considered for fifteen years. Her honors include an NEA Fellowship in Creative Nonfiction and the 2019 Towson Prize for Literature. More info at marionwinik.com.
