IN CONVERSATION WITH
KARINE JEAN-PIERRE
Saturday, November 1, 2025
Doors Open 7pm | Showtime 8pm PT
Former White House press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre sits down with Andrea Meyerson to discuss her journey into politics, her years at the White House serving under President Biden, and her new book, Independent.
Don’t miss Karine Jean-Pierre’s highly anticipated appearance and provocative conversation. And, hot off the press, all guests will receive a copy of Independent.
ADVANCE PRAISE
“Not your typical Washington book! Karine Jean-Pierre is not angling for her next big job in politics or trying to get you to vote for her—she’s cutting a swath through the political class, telling blunt, gritty truths and sparing no one. As she encounters both perfidy and grace from unexpected sources in both parties, the media, and the White House, Jean-Pierre’s own story becomes infuriating and inspiring in equal measure. Independent is a truly new and valuable contribution to our understanding of the Biden presidency, the Harris candidacy, the Trump phenomenon, and the Democratic Party’s whipsaw fortunes over the last decade. This is a brave firecracker of a book. Well done.”
— Rachel Maddow
ABOUT THE BOOK
In a country obsessed with blind loyalty to a two-party democratic system, Karine Jean-Pierre, former White House press secretary to the Biden-Harris administration, shares why Americans must step beyond party lines to embrace life as Independents.
Jean-Pierre didn’t come to her decision to be an Independent lightly. She has served two American presidents, Obama and Biden. In 2020, she joined Biden’s campaign as a senior adviser, becoming Harris’s chief of staff and then two years later, White House press secretary. She takes us through the three weeks that led to Biden’s abandonment of his bid for a second term and the betrayal by the Democratic Party that led to his decision.
In an urgent, timely analysis, Independent asks all Americans to vote their values and maintain their individuality within party lines. She Presents clear arguments and provocative evidence from her time as an insider about the importance of dismantling the torrent of disinformation and misinformation that has been rampant during recent elections and provides passionate insight for ways to move forward.
In a hard-hitting-yet-hopeful critique, Jean-Pierre defines what it means to be part of the growing percentage of our fractured electorate that is Independent, explains why it can be worthwhile to carve oneself a political ideology true to personal beliefs rather than a party affiliation, and provides the questions you need to ask yourself to determine where you fit politically. As a history maker, veteran public servant, political analyst, and independent thinker, she urges Americans to think outside of the blue-and-red box as we consider what’s next to save our democracy.

Happy Women’s Week!
Can’t make it to P’town this year? Then join us for a virtual screening of the documentary that lays out the history of Women’s Week in Provincetown. The in-person screening will be at Water’s Edge Cinema in Provincetown today while Women’s Week is in full swing!
Film Synopsis
The year was 1984. A handful of entrepreneurial women innkeepers in Provincetown, Mass. gathered together with a mission: to figure out how they could entice summer guests back during the seaside town’s offseason. Without the luxury of social media, or even email, the women hand-wrote letters to all their past guests, inviting them to come enjoy the beautiful autumn scenery—with a clambake and some local entertainment thrown in. They called it “Women’s Weekend,” and over the next three decades, it grew into a full week of activities, spawned numerous other lesbian gatherings in Provincetown, and expanded into one of the most popular lesbian events in the world.

LITERARY LESBIANS BOOK CLUB:
The Disappearing L:
Erasure of Lesbian Spaces and Culture
Tuesday, October 28
5:00 PM (PT), 7:00 PM (CT), 8:00 PM (ET)
Approximate Duration: 60 minutes
The Disappearing L investigates the rise and fall of US American lesbian cultural institutions since the 1970s. The book was a 2018 Over the Rainbow Selection presented by the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, and Transgendered Round Table (GLBTRT) of the American Library Association.
LGBT Americans now enjoy the right to marry-but what will we remember about the vibrant cultural spaces that lesbian activists created in the 1970s, 80s, and 90s? Most are vanishing from the calendar-and from recent memory. The Disappearing L explores the rise and fall of the hugely popular women-only concerts, festivals, bookstores, and support spaces built by and for lesbians in the era of woman-identified activism. Through the stories unfolding in these chapters, anyone unfamiliar with the Michigan festival, Olivia Records, or the women’s bookstores once dotting the urban landscape will gain a better understanding of the era in which artists and activists first dared to celebrate lesbian lives. This book offers the backstory to the culture we are losing to mainstreaming and assimilation. Through interviews with older activists, it also responds to recent attacks on lesbian feminists who are being made to feel that they’ve hit their cultural expiration date.
