Quad Cities Civic Conversations

The program will focus on the importance of the Rule of Law: current threats to democratic government in the United States, including the rise of authoritarianism, polarization, the spread of disinformation, electoral corruption, advocacy of violence toward political adversaries, and the politicization of independent institutions. It will also explore democracy's defense against these threats through efforts to uphold the rule of law, promote transparency and accountability, protect free and fair elections, counter disinformation and violence, and reinforce safeguards of democratic institutions.

Presenter, Sally Frank, is a Professor of Law at Drake University, primarily in the legal clinic with students representing clients in family law, domestic abuse, and guardianship cases. She also teaches seminars in Women and the Law, Women in the Hebrew Scriptures, and is an activist on many peace, civil rights and civil liberties issues.

Everyone is welcome. Thanks to an anonymous donor, a box-style lunch will be available at no charge to the first fifty pre-registered attendees on a "first come, first served" basis.

Please RSVP. Individual registration by name and email address are necessary for each attendee.

Questions regarding food should be addressed to [email protected] at least three days prior to the event.

A Question and Answer session was held and lasted over the allotted time. The audience was very engaged.
