Justic Warriors: event schedule: 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm: Stephen Hicks and Gloria Alvarez, audience Q&A, followed by book signing.
Join world-renowned philosopher Dr. Stephen Hicks (Canadian-American) and the amazing Gloria Alvarez (all the way from Guatemala) for an evening keynote and dialogue event as they navigate anti-liberalism in the two Americas, North and South, why the cult – or strong following of Che Guevara? Are the postmodern leftists “neo-Marxist”? Is the alt-right a bigger worry than the left? Capitalism’s economic successes are so obvious, so why do so many hate it?
From the philosophy that lead to the catastrophes of the 20th Century, the manipulation of that philosophy to maintain the ideals of socialism, from Gloria’s personal account of seeing empty supermarket shelves in Venezuela while being followed by the secret police, to the growing popularity of socialism in the Americas, this will be a unique chance to understand the root causes of postmodernism, why we have ideologies taking charge today, how we got here and what can be done moving forward.
Ms. Alvarez’s books include: The Populist Deception: why our countries are ruined and how to rescue them (2016), How to Talk to a Progressive (2017) and How to Talk to a Conservative (2019). Gloria has appeared on Prager U, TEDx Youth and talks regularly at international events. YouTube videos that Gloria features in, regularly receive over a million views.
(Meanwhile, the Australian edition of my Explaining Postmodernism was the publisher’s #3 bestseller for 2019.)
