Legal Ethics and Civic Duty in Divided Times: Lessons from January 6 and Charlottesville
A conversation with Attorney Timothy J. Heaphy, author of Harbingers: What January 6 and Charlottesville Reveal About Rising Threats to American Democracy. Heaphy was lead investigator for the January 6 Committee and for the city of Charlottesville following the White Supremacist rally that occurred there in 2017. Heaphy argues that studying the facts and circumstances surrounding these events can help make political violence less likely. And he calls for all Americans to become involved in their communities - and to avoid responding in anger or apathy.
