How are the events of 2020 still shaping our debates and culture in 2024?
About this Event

Join us for a conversation with Eric Klinenberg, Helen Gould Shepard Professor in the Social Sciences at New York University and contributor to magazines including The New Yorker and The New York Review of Books. Klinenberg discusses his book 2020: One City, Seven People, and the Year Everything Changed, which tells the stories of seven New Yorkers to explore how the pandemic, social movements, and 2020 presidential election changed our lives and society. How are the events of 2020 still shaping our debates and culture in 2024? The conversation is moderated by UVA history professor Claudrena Harold

The Nau Lab's “Touchstones of Democracy” series explores key events, places, thinkers, and texts that inform the history and principles of democracy. The fall 2024 conversations are produced at the University of Virginia by the Karsh Institute of Democracy and the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences. 

Lunch will be served starting at 11:30 AM. Klinenberg’s book will be available for purchase.
