Starting in 20 minutes is our EuroTalk Happy Hour, Tuesday, December 3, where we will be joined by such luminaries as geopolitical analyst Monique Camarra, the Disinfo Resilience Network’s Dietmar Pichler, our Bette friend Sid who lives in the heart of the Georgian protests against Russification. And hopefully, our friend Paul Niland from Lifeline Ukraine will be able to join us to help advise on self-care and mental wellness during difficult days.

Bette members can keep scrolling to register, and I will be sending out registration links for our Speakeasy events with Marci Shore and Nancy MacLean in separate posts.

In solidarity, reality, truth, and unity,
