1) Mark Green, former two term New York City Public Advocate and author or editor of twenty six books on U.S. politics, talks about his newest book titled, "The Inflection Election: Democracy or Fascism in 2024," which warns Americans that this November will be a choice between a Party of Progress and a Party of Dangerous Extremism that may determine the path for American governance for generations.

2) Bryce Greene, a graduate student, and writer discusses the repression of pro-Palestinian anti-war protests on college campuses across the U.S., and his involvement in an ACLU lawsuit against Indiana University for their suppression of the right to free speech during a vigil last May.

3) Activist and author Brian Tokar, a Board member of the Institute for Social Ecology, examines the climate crisis, and how we can chart a new path to a future that is not only sustainable but better than the way we currently live and interact with technology. Tokar will be addressing this topic at Hamden CT's Unitarian Society on September 14th.

4) Abigail Fuller, Co-Chair of Maine Voices for Palestinian Rights talks about her group's recent successful campaign resulting in a unanimous 9 to 0 vote in the Portland, Maine City Council passing a resolution directing the city to divest from corporations that are complicit in Israel's occupation and oppression of the Palestinian people, and how this divestment effort could be a model for other cities across the U.S.
