As a part of our #LIND26 series "America First, America Alone? Global Politics in an Age of Uncertainty", we welcome Emmy-award winner and one of America’s most rigorous and trusted political journalists, Rachel Maddow.
As host of MS NOW’s The Rachel Maddow Show, now in its 17th year, Maddow has become an indispensable voice for those seeking reliable, historically informed political analysis. Maddow has recently tackled everything from Trump’s dramatic polling collapse in the face of the nationwide “No Kings” protest movement to his controversial decision to empower ICE with next-generation surveillance technology.
This talk is moderated by Heidi Tworek, Director of the Centre for the Study of Democratic Institutions and Professor at UBC’s School of Public Policy and Global Affairs and History Department.
The Lind Initiative is presented by UBC’s School of Public Policy and Global Affairs, in partnership with the Chan Centre for the Performing Arts. Filmed by Collide Entertainment.
