Save the Date: Conversations for Change with Timothy Snyder

Oct 26 7:30 PM-9:00 PM
Benaroya Hall
200 University St, Seattle, 98104

Author of On Tyranny  to On Freedom, Timothy Snyder has delved into how to resist fascism and where we go from here.

United Way is teaming up with Seattle Arts & Lectures to co-present Timothy Snyder, the acclaimed historian behind “On Tyranny” and “On Freedom,” on October 26 at Benaroya Hall (S. Mark Taper Foundation Auditorium).

Freedom is the great American commitment, but we have lost sight of what it means. Too many of us look at freedom as the absence of state power, argues Timothy Snyder: We think we’re free if we can do and say as we please, and protect ourselves from government overreach. But true freedom isn’t so much freedom from as freedom to—the freedom to thrive, to take risks for futures we choose by working together. Freedom is the value that makes all other values possible.
