SUMMARY:Manny’s: How To Talk Politics: A Conversation w/ NYT Best Seller Anand Giridharadas
DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, news coverage and the discussion of important political events has moved almost entirely online. This has made it more complex to have difficult and necessary conversation around politics. In addition\, the act of political organizing and mobilization is now all focused online\, leaving out the very fundamental human to human connection that grassroots organizing depends on. This doesn’t even include the polarization that has accompanied the increased digital presence in politics. \nSo\, how do we talk about politics then? \nJoin us for a special conversation with Anand Giridharadas as we celebrate the release of his new book The Persuaders: At the Front Lines of the Fight for Hearts\, Minds\, and Democracy \nManny’s never turns away someone due to lack of funds. If you need a complimentary ticket\, please email the title of the event and the word “grapefruit” to angelina@welcometomannys.com \nWant to support community members? By purchasing a “Pay It Forward” ticket you will allow us to provide free tickets to those who may not be able to afford entry otherwise and ensure we can create a diverse socio-economic audience that represents San Francisco. \nAbout Anand Giridharadas: \nAnand Giridharadas is a writer. \nHe is the author of The Persuaders: At the Front Lines of the Fight for Hearts\, Minds\, and Democracy (2022)\, Winners Take All: The Elite Charade of Changing the World (2018)\, The True American: Murder and Mercy in Texas (2014)\, and India Calling: An Intimate Portrait of a Nation’s Remaking (2011).
