Beach Cities Democrats Monthly Meeting – Special Guest – Barbara McQuade (on Zoom)

March 27 @ 7:00 pm

Barbara McQuade will be joining our virtual meeting to discuss her new book, Attack from Within, including ideas how we can best counter disinformation.

Attack from Within addresses the most important issue of our day, the fundamental requirement of any democratic system, an informed electorate. Disinformation has reached a critical mass and is undermining our political debate, our culture, and our way of life. Too many are willing to believe the big lie and choose tribe over truth. Hopefully recognizing the problem is the first step to correcting it.

Barbara McQuade is a professor from practice at the University of Michigan Law School, her alma mater, where she teaches courses in criminal law, criminal procedure, national security, and data privacy. She is also a legal analyst for NBC News and MSNBC, and a co-host of the podcast #SistersInLaw. In addition, Barbara is a frequent guest on Stephanie Miller’s morning radio show.

From 2010 to 2017, McQuade served as U.S Attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan. Ms. McQuade was appointed by President Barack Obama, and was the first woman to serve in her position. Earlier in her career, she worked as a sports writer and copy editor, a judicial law clerk, an associate in private practice, and an assistant U.S. attorney. She and her husband have four children and live in Ann Arbor.
