Eileen Flanagan, author of Common Ground
Wednesday, June 10
        7:00 p.m.
​Eileen Flanagan is an award-winning author, speaker, and leader of spiritually-grounded activism. She has confronted corporate CEOs, prayed in their lobbies, and been arrested alongside Indigenous water protectors, interfaith clergy, and fellow Quakers. With Earth Quaker Action Team, she has played key leadership roles in three climate campaigns, including pressuring PNC Bank to pause its financing of mountaintop removal coal mining in Appalachia. With Choose Democracy, she has helped tens of thousands of people learn peacekeeping skills and nonviolent strategies for change. The first in her Irish working-class family to go to college, she earned a BA from Duke and an MA from Yale.
 
Eileen’s newest book is Common Ground: How the Crisis of the Earth is Saving Us from Our Illusion of Separation. Endorsed by people like Bill McKibben, it dives deep into the ways people of all ages, races, and political stripes can come together in the face of a government hijacked by special interests. Flanagan argues that more than technology or even elections, it is acting in solidarity with all life that is humanity’s best hope for survival.
