America Now!
“America Now!” is a new series of live events exploring the current state of the USA and its place in the world.
In a world of hot takes these discussions will offer some much-needed deep dives, giving expert insight into some of the most pressing or peculiar aspects of modern American life - from the Supreme Court to Cowboy Carter.
Organised by the British Association for American Studies and the Eccles Institute for the Americas and Oceania, America Now! takes place every other month, in the British Library Knowledge Centre.
Details of events for the rest of 2025 will be announced later this year. If you have any suggestions of topics that you’d like to see discussed, please email
eccles-institute@bl.uk with ‘America Now!’ in the subject line.
