Author, historian, and humorist John Nichols of The Nation and MSNBC returns to Tucson on Saturday, March 15, 2014. This is the third year in a row that the PDA Tucson and the Pima Area Labor Federation have hosted an evening with Nichols at the IBEW Hall.
Nichols mixes political commentary with snippets of history and calls for progressive action. Join Progressive Democrats of America’s Tucson Chapter and PALF for an inspiring evening with a national figure. I guarantee that you will come away from this event inspired, informed, and maybe just pissed off enough to fight the forces of greed who are trying to destroy our country. [Video after the jump.]
At this event, Nichols also will be selling and signing copies of his new book “Dollaroacy: How the Money and Media Election Complex Is Destroying America”. Proceeds from the book sale will go to Progressive Democrats of America continue their struggle for equality, fairness, and progressive government. If you cannot attend, please consider donating online to PDA (here).
The Roasted Chile food cart will be providing food for sale before the Nichols’ event. Tamale pie, homemade soups, and more. Come and have a great southwestern dinner or snack before Nichols starts to speak.
Doors open at 6 p.m. at the IBEW Hall on South Tucson Blvd. Facebook event here. BfAZ calendar item here.

Thickly, your point is? John Nichols is brilliant. For people who missed him last night at the PDA event or at the book festival yesterday, he will be at the festival again today. Get there early.
“The forces of greed”? How about “The forces of ignorance”?
