Boulder Book Store and the Boulder Theater welcome Rachel Maddow for a discussion of her new book PREQUEL: An American Fight Against Fascism.

Inspired by her research for the hit MSBNC podcast Ultra, in PREQUEL, Maddow charts the rise of a wild American strain of authoritarianism that has been alive on the far-right edge of our politics for the better part of a century. As we navigate through our own disquieting times, PREQUEL offers a roadmap from U.S. history, marked both with heroics to emulate and traps and pitfalls to avoid. All tickets include a copy of the book.
