This webinar examines comparatively the growth and political effectiveness of right-wing populism in Western Europe, Central Europe, and the USA since 9/11. Right-wing populists in both the USA and Europe pursue this strategy because they see it as chiming well with public opinion at a time of great uncertainty, instability, and insecurity.

This month, “Connecting the Dots” calls for action on the urgent need for transportation equity and environmental justice. Many Ohioans are kept from full participation in our communities because they lack access to transportation. Equitable public transportation lowers fossil fuel usage, reduces carbon emissions, creates less waste, and decreases pollution in our communities. Developing a modern public transit system is essential for Ohio’s future.
