The NewSouth Bookstore actively hosts bookstore and off-site literary programs — book talks and readings — along with a variety of other programs both entertaining and educational. These include presentations by historians, readings of plays, music events, and community service programs. We enjoy such gatherings quite a lot. Our bookstore events calendar is always evolving, so please regularly check back here for updates to our calendar (and/or follow us on social media, where all such activities are also posted). We welcome your event suggestions and thank you for your support.
Tuesday, June 24 at 5:30pm at The NewSouth Bookstore: Barbara McQuade with Attack from Within
June 24 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm
This talk should interest everyone. Seriously. Join us to listen to and learn from MSNBC legal analyst Barbara McQuade, author of Attack from Within: How Disinformation Is Sabotaging America, now in paperback. The book is an urgent, comprehensive explanation of the ways disinformation is impacting democracy, and practical solutions that can be pursued to strengthen the public, media, and truth-based politics. In the book, McQuade breaks down the ways disinformation has become a tool to drive voters to extremes, disempower our legal structures, and consolidate power in the hands of the few. Eric Holder calls McQuade “a great public servant and one of the most acute observers of our time.” We are excited to host Barbara McQuade at The NewSouth Bookstore on Tuesday, June 24 at 5:30pm.
