Life After Cars LIVE
📍 Plaza Theatre
📆 Friday, March 13 @ 8 PM
From the hosts of The War on Cars podcast comes Life After Cars LIVE: a timely, energizing conversation about how we got stuck in car dependence and what it will take to build safer, healthier, more connected communities.
Join Propel ATL for a live, in-person discussion with the authors of Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile. Atlanta City Councilmember for District 2 Kelsea Bond, Sam Foster, and Beltline Kevin will join us as our featured local guests at Atlanta’s historic Plaza Theatre.

ABOUT THE BOOK: LIFE AFTER CARS
Cars shape nearly every part of modern life, but at a staggering cost. In Life After Cars, journalists and advocates Sarah Goodyear, Doug Gordon, and Aaron Naparstek unpack how car dependence has reshaped our cities, deepened inequities, harmed public health, and damaged the planet. Praised as “inspiring and hopeful,” “a call to action,” and “a much-needed shake-up,” Life After Cars invites all of us to imagine, and fight for, something better.
