SUMMARY:The Principled Politician: A Story Of Courage
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nOne man’s courage offers timeless lessons for us all. In this presentation\, Adam Schrager tells the story of Ralph Carr\, who was drafted to run for governor of Colorado in 1938\, turned down the chance to run as a vice presidential candidate in 1940\, and was being discussed as a “future presidential candidate” by newspapers in New York\, Chicago and Los Angeles. Carr became a national figure when\, after Pearl Harbor\, he defended the constitutional rights of Japanese-Americans and stood against internment. His outspoken and unpopular stance would cost him greatly\, both personally and professionally \nAbout the Speaker\n \nAdam Schrager is the Social Impact Storyteller at the American Family Insurance Institute for Corporate and Social Impact.

He worked as a broadcast journalist for nearly 30 years winning more than two dozen Emmy Awards in the process. \nHe’s the author of four books\, including “The Principled Politician\,” which led to Colorado lawmakers naming the state’s new justice center and a state highway after its subject\, former Gov. Ralph Carr\, who defended the rights of Japanese Americans after Pearl Harbor and lost his career as a result. \nSchrager has an undergraduate degree in American History from the University of Michigan and a graduate degree in Broadcast Journalism from Northwestern University. \nSchrager has an undergraduate degree in American History from the University of Michigan and a graduate degree in Broadcast Journalism from Northwestern University. \n\nWith support from: \n*The Zoom event link will be sent in the confirmation email.
