DESCRIPTION:The Battle for Portland & the Implications Nationwide\n\nSpeaker: Robert 
 Evans\nInvestigative Journalist, @bellingcat; author, "A Brief History of 
 Vice"; Twitter @IwriteOK\n\nFri, Aug 7 / 12:00 pm PDT \n\nRSVP (free): 
 https://www.commonwealthclub.org/events/2020-08-07/battle-portland\n\nThe 
 active presence of federal troops in Portland, Oregon sparked an increase 
 in violence and protests just as the mayor said things had been calming 
 down. Now President Donald Trump is promising to send troops to other large 
 cities, ostensibly to put down the violence but critics say it is an 
 election ploy designed to trigger reaction from protestors and increase 
 support from the president's base.\n\nJoin us for a conversation with 
 journalist Robert Evans for an on-the-scene report from Portland on the 
 ongoing confrontations in that city—and their implications 
 nationwide.\n\nRobert Evans has worked as a conflict journalist in Iraq and 
 Ukraine and reported extensively on far-right extremist groups in the 
 United States. He's particularly interested in the ways terrorist groups 
 recruit, radicalize and communicate through the Internet.\n\n
