Seth David Radwell's book American Schism is subtitled, "How the Two Enlightenments Hold the Secret to Healing our Nation". It was officially published 2021-06-28 just over 5 months after the end of Donald Trump's first term. He is interviewed by Radio Active Magazine regular Spencer Graves.
No Kings rallies October 18
Roughly 2,000 "No Kings" rallies are scheduled in the US, 3 in Canada and 20 in Europe when I checked a map maintained by "Mobilize.us":
"Mobilize.us/nokings/map".
I needed to zoom into different geographic areas to see details then click on buttons to learn times and street addresses. This map aggregates locations in a way that I found confusing.
A map that seems easier to use is maintained by "NoKings.org":
"nokings.org/#map"
This map allows someone to enter a street address or zip code.
The Kansas City Marathon is also scheduled for October 18 starting just south of the Nelson art gallery at 7 AM and ending by 1 PM. If your travel plans for that day might carry you through a box from State Line to The Paseo between 6th and 74th streets, it may be wise to check the race routes for the marathon, half-marathon, 10 and 5 K races.
It should be feasible to attend multiple rallies that day. One itinerary might be as follows:
* 10 AM - noon: NO KINGS 2.0 - Northeast Douglas Street & Northeast Chipman Road, Lee's Summit, MO 64086.
* 11 AM - 2 PM: PEACEFUL NO KINGS PROTEST - ACT 2, Overland Park, KS.
* 1 - ? PM: Boots on the Ground Midwest No Kings Day - Johnson County, KS.
* 2 - 4 PM: NO KINGS KANSAS CITY: West 47th Street & Mill Creek Parkway, Kansas City, MO 64112.
One could attend parts of each of these four events, leaving some early or arriving at others late to attend all four. Crudely similar itineraries involving other parts of the metro area could also be developed.
