The Program in Latin America, Caribbean and Latinx Studies is glad to present Sandra Kogut for a screening of her film No Céu da Pátria Nesse Instante (At This Moment, in the Nation's Sky), followed by a Q&A. Shot during the turbulent months leading up to the recent Brazilian presidential elections and the subsequent storming of Congress, the Presidential Palace and the Supreme Court on Jan. 8, 2023, the film follows a sequence of key-moments through the eyes of some characters involved in the process.

The first installment of the Democracy by Design: Engineering a Civic Life Lecture Series features Congressman John Sarbanes, who will explore how we reform the design features of America's voting and governing machinery in order to restore public confidence in our elections and ensure that everyday citizens—not special interests—drive legislative policy in Washington.
