Join us at Earth Cafe to discuss our thoughts on a timely book about the fall of tyrants and find out how true "sic semper tyrannis (thus always to tyrants)" actually is.

"Tyrants seem invincible, but they face constant threats from all sides. Whether it's by members of their inner circle, military elites, alienated masses, assassins, revolutionaries, or simply old age - they always fall. And when they do, they cannot retire: they face exile, prison or death. The aftermath can be catastrophic.

How Tyrants Fall is an essential guide to decapitating tyranny, and a warning of what happens if we do."
