SUMMARY:Crisis & Consequences: American Democracy and Our Security with Juliette Kayyem and Tom Nichols
DESCRIPTION:On Wednesday. April 2 at 7pm ET\, we’re bringing together two of the sharpest voices in national security\, democracy\, and political analysis—Tom Nichols and Juliette Kayyem—for a timely conversation. \nNichols\, an expert on foreign policy and the dangers of authoritarianism\, and Kayyem\, a leading authority on homeland security and crisis management\, will tackle the state of America’s role in the world\, global instability\, and what comes next. They will also discuss the fallout from Signal-gate—what it reveals about the integrity of Trump’s national security team\, the risks of politicized intelligence\, and the broader implications for American security and democracy. \nAbout the Speakers: \nTom Nichols is a staff writer at The Atlantic and a contributor to the Atlantic Daily newsletter. He is a professor emeritus of national-security affairs at the U.S. Naval War College\, where he taught for 25 years\, and an instructor at the Harvard Extension School. He has served as a legislative aide in the Massachusetts House and the U.S. Senate. He writes about international security\, nuclear weapons\, Russia\, and the challenges to democracy in the United States and around the world—along with occasional contrarian views on popular culture.

He is also a five-time undefeated Jeopardy champion. \nJuliette Kayyem is currently the faculty chair of the Homeland Security and Security and Global Health Projects at Harvard & Kennedy School of Government.

A contributing writer to The Atlantic\, she has a weekly security segment on NPR’s Boston station WGBH. Her most recent book\, The Devil Never Sleeps: Learning to Live in an Age of Disasters\, was described in a New Yorker profile of her as an “engagingly urgent blueprint for rethinking our approach to disaster preparedness and response.” \nShe is a frequent speaker and advisor to major corporations and associations on national and homeland security\, planning for a crisis\, cybersecurity and resiliency efforts.
