The Civics Center presents
HIGH SCHOOL VOTER REG TRAINING: A WEBINAR
Get trained in 1 hour online
Tuesday, April 9
8-9pm (PT)
FREE
Sign up in advance HERE:
Any questions email Laura at: Lwb@thecivicscenter.org
The webinar will cover 10 steps for planning a drive, with time for question and answers. This hour-long session will be followed by a 20-minute tutorial for interested students on how to fill out the California voter registration form.
You will receive further information about joining the webinar after signing up.
Before the webinar, please take a look at our resources and blog at thecivicscenter.org for some initial ideas! All attendees are encouraged to register their clubs and drives with The Civics Center at tinyurl.com/ClubsDrives. We look forward to staying in touch to help plan and promote voter registration at your high school.
16 and 17 year olds can pre-register to vote in CA. It’s online and super easy. Yet, only 14% of them are preregistered. High Schools should play a role in this, but most of them don’t have the staff or the budget to deal. That’s where The Civics Center comes in, which is an organization started by the amazing Laura B. It’s focused on getting high school students registered. To that end, The Civics Center is hosting a 1 hour webinar to train high school students — like your kids!! — on how to host voter registration drivers in their schools.
The Mueller Report
The ramifications of Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s just-submitted report are still unknown. Assessing the likely impact of the report are Malcolm Nance, author and 33-year U.S. intelligence veteran; CNN analyst Asha Rangappa, a former F.B.I. special agent specializing in counterintelligence investigations; and Scott Horton, a Columbia law professor and contributing editor for Harper’s Magazine in legal affairs and national security. Moderated by journalist, documentary filmmaker, and KPFK 90.7 FM radio host Ian Masters.

Robert Caro in Conversation with Conan O’Brien
When: April 16, 2019, 7:30pm.
Where: Temple Emanuel, 8844 Burton Way Beverly Hills, CA 90211.
Ticket: $20 (General Admission), $ 38 with signed copy of Caro’s new book, Working. Buy Tickets Here.
Parking: Available on local streets and in the Temple’s reserved parking garage located at the corner of Burton Way and Herzl Way.
Robert Caro is recognized as one of the great modern historians of our time. His books on Robert Moses, and more recently on Lyndon Johnson,have earned him two Pulitzers, two National Book Awards, three National Book Circle Awards, and so many more. His books on LBJ are legendary, and they are astounding in their scope, their detail, and their accessibility to the general public. His books are utterly thrilling in revealing how Lyndon Johnson not only got his power, but how he wielded it. Unforgettable.
In his new book, Working, Caro gives us the stories behind the books, stories from and about his interviews with witnesses, including with Lady Bird Johnson about her assessment of one of her husband’s beautiful mistresses. Not all people can be engaged in the same way: of particular note is how he chose to conduct his interviews, whether with lawmakers, or the family of LBJ, or with the independent-minded people in the Texas Hill Country where LBJ had his ranch.
Conan O’Brien is the host of the late-night show, Conan, which airs on TBS. He is also the host of his podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend. Besides all that, Conan is a noted presidential scholar.
