The perfect gift—in any amount—with that personal touch of classic old world charm.
Co-presented with the TOWN HALL CENTER FOR CIVIC LIFE. Please join this night-after the midterm election gathering as Ari Berman, political correspondent for The Nation, is joined by Pulitzer Prize- and National Book Award-winning New York Times commentator Tim Egan, and The Stranger's associate editor, Eli Sanders, for some informed assessing. Ari Berman's new book, Herding Donkeys: The Fight to Rebuild the Democratic Party and Reshape American Politics (Farrar, Straus & Giroux) tells the story of the post-2004 grassroots resurgence of the Democratic Party, from Howard Dean's fifty-state strategy through Barack Obama's electoral victory, and on into the legislative stalemate and intraparty strife that followed. "The resurgence of the Democratic Party in the past two election cycles is one of the most importantand least understoodpolitical stories of the new century. Ari Berman tells that tale with reportorial verve, a keen eye, sharp pen, and a wealth of fresh insight. If you want to understand the grassroots revival of progressivism in America, and also the new challenges and aching disappointments that have come along with it, this is the book." - John Heilemann. $5 tickets are available at the door starting at 6:30 p.m., or in advance via www.brownpapertickets.com (1-800-838-3006). Town Hall Seattle is at 1119 Eighth Avenue (at Seneca). Preferred seating for Town Hall members.
