Love and Death, Hope and Resistance
with Ady Barkan and Bradley Whitford
in the Rector’s Forum, December 22
In a special Rector’s Forum on Sunday, December 22, at 10:15 a.m., progressive activist Ady Barkan and actor Bradley Whitford will feature a discussion of this fraught and poignant moment in our nation’s history and a reading from Ady’s new memoir, Eyes to the Wind.
Ady Barkan is the co-founder of the Be a Hero PAC and is an organizer for the Center for Popular Democracy. Barkan, who was diagnosed with ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease) in 2016 shortly after the birth of his son, has been called “the most powerful activist in America.”
Three-time Emmy Award winner Brad Whitford is a prolific film, television and theatre actor, political activist and All Saints parishioner. His Emmys were for his portrayals of White House Deputy Chief of Staff Josh Lyman in The West Wing in 2001, for Marcy in Transparent in 2015, and for Commander Joseph Lawrence in The Handmaid’s Tale in 2019. He is currently starring in NBC’s Perfect Harmony as a church choir director.
Admission is free. All are welcome. All Saints Church is at 132 N Euclid Ave, Pasadena, CA., directly across Euclid from Pasadena City Hall.
