Join us to enjoy a conversation between author and recently retired Federal Judge David S. Tatel and our own Linda Ramsdell, founder of the Galaxy Bookshop.

This is a unique opportunity to hear directly from the author and participate in a Q&A session about topics ranging from a lived experience of American civil rights law, the function of the judicial branch to protect rights such as equal justice, voting equality, environmental protection, and foundational democracy, the Supreme Court, and coming to terms with a visual disability,  And dogs. There will be lots of talk about dogs. Dogs in general, but guide dogs in particular.

This event is free and will take place at the East Craftsbury Presbyterian Church in East Craftsbury, which is ADA accessible. Books will be available for purchase at the event provided by our friends at the Galaxy Bookshop.

Some words about the book: 

“The moving, thoughtful and inspiring memoir by one of America’s most accomplished public servants and legal thinkers, who spent years denying and working around his blindness, before finally embracing it as an essential part of his identity” – Bryan Stevenson

“ As both a judge and a writer, he’s committed to restraint, the rigorous dispassion of his opinions has been key to his success in defending the democratic ideals that we are now in danger of losing” Julia Stone Peters
