Stephen L. Carter - The Impeachment Of Abraham Lincoln
Start: 7:00 pm
End: 8:00 pm

In this richly imagined alternative history, the novelist and Yale law professor dramatizes what might have happened if Lincoln had survived the attempt on his life. First, Carter envisions the president being impeached for overstepping his constitutional authority during the Civil War. Next, a lawyer working on behalf of Lincoln is murdered, and two of his colleagues—a black woman and a white law clerk— are caught up in the ensuing scandal.
