Photos: Election Issues Unpacked by MSNBC Hosts on BAM

The Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) hosted MSNBC Live: Democracy 2024, an event filled with anchors and experts from the news network discussing the issues affecting the November presidential election.

Rachel Maddow, Jen Psaki, Chris Hayes and Joy Reid were among the many experts who took the stage on Saturday, September 7.

The event included multiple screenings of the documentary From Russia with Levwhich was produced by Maddow. The film follows the larger-than-life journey of Lev Parnas, a Ukrainian-born con man and former mob boss whose random, almost accidental association with Donald Trump and his lawyer Rudolph Giuliani took him around the world and ultimately to prison.

In the afternoon, viewers had the chance to hear from Psaki, Hayes, Reid, Alex Wagner, Andrea Mitchell and Katy Tur in several in-depth discussions on the topics that matter most to voters: the state of the 2024 presidential election, the changing electorate and the crucial phase of the campaign.

The evening session featured Maddow, Lawrence O’Donnell, Ari Melber, Stephanie Ruhle, Michael Steele, Alicia Menendez and Symone Sanders Townsend. The pundits took the stage to lead discussions on the state of play less than two months before Election Day.
