Chemicals.  GMO food.  Fad diets.  Anti-vaccine crusades.  The obesity epidemic.

You’ve seen the headlines scream about them.  We are bombarded with claims that the world is a dangerous place. This culture of alarmism is weaving its way into nearly every aspect of our daily lives, making people worry about common everyday products, food, and healthy activities.

Should we panic? Should we this afraid of the world?

In her new book, From Cupcakes to Chemicals, Julie Gunlock shows how the food nannies, environmentalists, public health officials, politicians, and government regulators benefit from keeping the American public scared.

Join America’s Future Foundation Chicago as we host Julie Gunlock — Director of the Independent Women’s Forum’s Culture of Alarmism Project — for a special event on Wednesday, March 12th at 6pm at Sullivan’s Steakhouse.

Everyone who attends will receive a complimentary copy of Julie’s book.  Complimentary hors d’oeuvres will be served.
