Burroughs Brunch: Tommy Zurhellen on The High Road
Saturday, October 17 at 12:30pm
In 2019, Navy veteran Tommy Zurhellen walked across America alone, to raise awareness on veteran homelessness and suicide in our country. In 2023, he embarked on another journey much more perilous: running for local office as a Democrat in the Republican stronghold of Dutchess County, New York. His platform? Kindness. His chances? Not good.
Can you win an election in America today with only kindness, and zero negativity? US Veteran, professor, and author Thomas Zurhellen will present on his book "The High Road: Following the Campaign Trail for a Kinder America."
OutBook Book Club
