Legal scholar and analyst for MSNBC and NBC News and professor at the University of Michigan Law School, Barbara McQuade, joins us for a conversation on how to identify the ways disinformation is seeping into all facets of our society and how we can fight against it. In her New York Times bestselling book Attack from Within, Barbara McQuade unpacks the history of disinformation starting with Mussolini and Hitler, the tactics of disinformation and why Americans are so vulnerable to it, and real solutions for how to counter disinformation.

To commemorate the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution, the Concord Museum will offer ongoing opportunities to gather as a community, reflect on the founding of our nation, and engage with the significance of our shared past for our present moment. Highlights will include three new special exhibitions, a special speaker series, a published catalog, and expanded educational resources. Together, these initiatives will showcase the incredible stories behind the eyewitness objects held at the Museum to illuminate the many different ways people experienced, shaped, and remembered the Revolution.
