YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Recorded in Miami, Florida, on February 12, 2026, this fireside chat features The Atlantic’s managing director for events, Evan Smith, in conversation with journalist Georgia Fort, who discussed the importance of a free press and her recent arrest following her coverage of a protest inside a Minnesota church.

This conversation was part of The Atlantic Across America event series. In 1857, The Atlantic’s founders wrote that their magazine would make a sincere and honest effort to represent and champion what they called “the American idea.” The Atlantic will visit all 50 states in a series of events where we will surface and engage with the most urgent, complex, and distinctly American questions of the moment in the places where they are unfolding.
