Speaker: Dr. Nicole Hemmer, Vanderbilt University

For many Americans, the attack on the U.S. Capitol in 2020 came as a shock, evidence of a right-wing movement that had rapidly radicalized over the course of the Trump presidency. But the rise of a radicalized right, and its growing power within the Republican Party, is a story that reaches back much further. This talk will focus on the roots of that radicalization, and what it means for voting rights, ballot battles, and the possibility of violence heading into the 2024 elections.
