This is Now – Facts in Crisis

May 21, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm PDT

This event is online.

Join us online when political commentator, author, and international affairs expert Tom Nichols returns for a new conversation. You may know Nichols from his bestselling book, The Death of Expertise: The Campaign against Established Knowledge and Why it Matters.

Since his previous visit with us in 2017, the book has become even more relevant: in a time of public emergency and political unrest, self-styled “experts” are pontificating, posting, and tweeting inaccurate opinions as fact. How do we cut through the noise to find the truth? How do we determine who deserves our trust and attention?

With his wicked wit and his vast wealth of knowledge, Tom Nichols walks us through it all. Reserve a spot to hear his conversation with journalist-in-residence Angie Coiro.

**Registration will close one hour before the event; please reserve your spot early to guarantee access, as registrations are limited. One registered attendee will be given access to an event per email; please make sure that each registered attendee in your “order” has a unique email address associated with their name.**
