SUMMARY:Brattleboro Democracy Forum: Racism\, Secrecy\, Lies and the Ascent of Donald Trump
DESCRIPTION:Democracy Forum with Nick Biddle and friends \nRacism\, Secrecy\, Lies and the Ascent of Donald Trump \nat the Brooks Memorial Library and on Zoom \nTuesday\, July 19\, 2022\, 6:30—8:00 pm. \nTwo overwhelming forces have combined to shape the Republican Party. The first is racism\, America’s oldest\, most damaging evil.  The second is secrecy compelled by the politics of nuclear weaponry.  Fifty-eight years ago the Republican Party embraced a strategy to attract white voters by appealing to racism against Blacks.  Fifty-eight years ago Democrats manufactured a lie about events in the Gulf of Tonkin to justify launching a war in Vietnam.  This presentation will demonstrate how the Republican use of racism and National Security secrecy and lies created the conditions that empowered Donald Trump and his very real threat to democracy. \nNick Biddle is a retired history professor and a Brattleboro resident since 2013. \nTo join Democracy Forum Meeting on Zoom\, click this link on July 19th \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86181587319

SUMMARY:Real Democracy: Tim Kipp and Friends
DESCRIPTION:REAL DEMOCRACY  \nwith Tim Kipp and friends \nBrattleboro Democracy Forum  \nat Brooks Memorial Library  \n and on Zoom \n6:30 pm\, Tuesday\, April 12th\, 2022\, \nThe meeting will be recorded and will air on BCTV and WVEW-FM \n  \nThe meeting at the library will be in the Community Meeting Room located on the 2nd floor\, just inside the rear entrance from the Municipal Center parking lot.   \nTo join the Zoom meeting click on this URL on the 12th: \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/84518553496?pwd=NldqT093NWxxUWxIVWR2N0V5NkQ4UT09 \n  \nTim says: \nThe United States is in a crisis of two nations.  Economic instability\, racial reckoning\, a lingering pandemic and rising authoritarianism divide Americans by a gulf not experienced since the Civil War. \nUnderlying this disunion are conflicting concepts of what democracy actually is or should be. The old consensus is crumbling. Today for some\, physically attacking the nation’s capitol makes sense\, for others\, making it harder for people to vote is a democratic act.  \nOn the other hand many still believe in citizen responsibility in the political process. For these people government and community organizing for social justice is what democracy looks like.  \nOur future can and will be charted by how we conceptualize democracy itself. Understanding\, expanding and sustaining democracy can perhaps lead to a bridging of this not so grand canyon of national divide. \nThis presentation focuses on the nature of democracy and offers a re conceptualization of this greatest of human inventions. \n  \nTim Kipp is a retired history and political science teacher of 39 years and a political activist since the 1960s. \n  \nMarlboro Resident and musician Jesse Lepkoff will sing the marching song “We Are Marching For Democracy” to open the meeting. \nThe WE CELEBRATE DEMOCRACY CIVIL RIGHTS FOR ALL Main Street banner will be hung at the library \n  \nwecelebratedemocracycivilrightsforall.org– \n Positive Nonviolent public action for democracy and civil rights  \nfor all people- 802 258 7045
