Fiction at the Barricades: Stories to Defend Democracy is a lecture discussion about how the imagination sustains American Democracy. When we imagine the inner lives of other citizens and residents, we develop the relationships we need to function as one people, indivisible after all.
Michael Fine is a writer, community organizer, family physician, public health official and author of Health Care Revolt: How to Organize, Build a Health Care System, and Resuscitate Democracy – All at the Same Time and Abundance, a romantic thriller set in Rhode Island and in Liberia in the aftermath of the Liberian Civil Wars of 1989-2020. His new book The Bull and Other Stories is out now.
