United Chinese Americans (UCA)和United States Heartland China Association(USHCA)将于11月3号中午12点（东部时间）举行“麦卡锡主义又回来了？”的网上研讨会。我们邀请了《纽约时报》畅销书作者Larry Tye和美国媒体The Intercept的调查记者 Mara Hvistendahl 来分享他们对这个问题的看法。密苏里州前州长、USHCA 主席Bob Holden 届时将讲话，UCA主席薛海培主持会议。
前国务卿John Kerry这样评价Tye 的新书，“Larry Tye’s Demagogue nails the defining biography of Joe McCarthy. I grew up a Cold War kid watching it all on television. I thought I knew it all, but Tye makes it real.”
Hvistendahl 在The Intercept上发表了多篇与“China Initiative”相关的深度报道，她也是《科学》杂志驻中国的前首席记者。她的最新著作The Scientist and The Spy: A True Story of China, The FBI, and Industrial Espionage详细介绍了一项影响深远的联邦调查局针对中国科学家的调查。
