	Description:		Emmy Award-winning MSNBC host Chris Hayes discusses his book A Colony in a Nation. Hayes argues that the U.S. is drifting towards a police state that venerates the law and prioritizes order over civil rights. He examines the surge in crime that began in the 1960's and peaked in the 1990's, and the decline that followed. Through reporting and research, he looks at how fear causes us to make dangerous and unfortunate choices, both in our society and at the personal level. Chris Hayes will be in conversation with Issa Kohler-Hausmann, author of Misdemeanorland, on March 11 at 5 pm at the Powerhouse @ the Archway (28 Adams Street, Brooklyn). This segment is guest hosted by DW Gibson.
