Jumbo Life Calendar | 260 Eaton Hall
Register (In-Person Only) How have centuries-old regional differences brought American democracy to the brink of collapse? In his new book Nations Apart, author and Tufts alumnus Colin Woodard shows how colonial era settlement patterns and the cultural geography they left behind are at the root of our political polarization, economic inequality, public health crises, and democratic collapse. Join a conversation with Woodard as he shares groundbreaking original data and historical insights to help us understand why Americans are so divided on many hot button issues, how geographic fissures have been exploited, and how we might bridge the rifts that divide us. Registration required. Light refreshments will be provided. All are welcome.

Colin Woodard, A91, a New York Times bestselling author, historian and award-winning journalist, is director of Nationhood Lab Salve Regina University’s Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy. He is the author of seven books that have been translated into a dozen foreign languages and inspired an NBC television drama. A longtime foreign correspondent, he reported from more than 50 countries on seven continents and, as an investigative reporter at Maine’s Portland Press Herald, won a 2012 George Polk Award and was a finalist for a 2016 Pulitzer Prize.
