AuthorsLive welcomed U.S. Congressman Jamie Raskin in conversation with Sarah Lyall, a noted journalist with The New York Times, to discuss themes found in his recently published book, "Unthinkable: Trauma, Truth, and the Trials of American Democracy."
On December 31, 2020, Tommy Raskin, the only son of Maryland Congressman Jamie Raskin, took his own life. Seven days later on January 6, Congressman Raskin returned to congress to help certify the 2020 Presidential election results, when violent insurrectionists stormed the U.S. Capitol. As our nation stood in shock and mourning following the attack, Congressman Raskin, a Constitutional law professor, was called upon to put aside his overwhelming grief—both personal and professional—and lead the impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump.
