Email your questions now.

Because Anne Applebaum will be Zooming from Poland, which is six hours ahead of us, we’ll have to record a few hours earlier than our usual live start time. So we’d really appreciate your questions before 11AM ET on Sunday the 15th. Please send them to us at hrdemocracy24@gmail.com, so Anne and Ruth can answer your questions in our Town Hall.

The evening will run for about an hour and a half.

Sunday, December 15th, 7–8:30 PM ET

We’ve noticed that more than a few registrants for our Democracy Town Halls Series received confirmation that they’d successfully registered,
when apparently they may not have.

They look for a confirmation and link in their email, only to receive neither. So, as a useful workaround, we suggest the following:

**IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A LINK AND CONFIRMATION ON YOUR EMAIL, NO FURTHER ACTION IS NECESSARY.
HOWEVER IF YOU HAVE NOT RECEIVED A LINK ON YOU EMAIL, FOLLOW THE STEPS BELOW**

  1. Register again on our website.
  2. Although it says you’ve registered, go to the bottom of the page, where it asks if you’ve received an email, and advises you to register again if you haven’t.
  3. Regardless, you should register AGAIN by clicking the link on the bottom line, which asks: “Didn’t get an email? Click here to resend”
  4. Click on “here” link, leading to a captcha, which often says, “I am not a robot.” Click the box and then the blue link. The Conformation should then appear in your email.
Open to the entire community of alumni, students, and friends. Share this page with them:
