In March, Drinking Liberally-Redmond is honored to have the local chapter of the Anti-Defamation League, represented by Kendall Kosai, ADL PNW Associate Regional Director, to lead a conversation about combating the rising tides of hate in the nation, and in particular here in the Pacific Northwest.

There is no doubt that there has been a rise in hate crimes and extremism in Washington; to cite just one example, we have recently had a Washington state legislator accused of domestic terrorism. The ADL stands on the front lines in addressing these issues. Join us for a conversation around the rise of hate in Washington state and what you can do about it.

Kendall Kosai is the Associate Regional Director of the ADL Pacific Northwest Region. He spearheads the regions advocacy and community engagement work. A native to the Pacific Northwest, Kendall has worked in the civil rights space on a federal and local level for nearly a decade.

There is no fee for attending our meetings, but we do ask everyone who attends to 1) buy food and/or a drink to support the restaurant that supports us, and 2) contribute when the hat-is-passed to pay for our speakers' meal and operating expenses.

Drinking Liberally - Redmond gives like-minded progressives a place to talk politics. You don't need to be a policy expert - just come and learn from peers, trade jokes, vent in an informal, friendly environment.
