Harry Dunn, a former US capitol police officer, was on duty on January 6, 2021, and defended the Capitol during the attacks of that day. He later testified before the bipartisan January 6th Commission, alongside three other officers. He has recorded his account of the events of that day in his memoir: Standing My Ground: A Capitol Officer’s Fight for Accountability and Good Trouble After January 6th. He has worked to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion within the Capitol Police force, and received accolades for his exemplary service, including the Capitol Police Service Medal, the Capitol Police Achievement Medal, a Capitol Police Commendation, and a Congressional Gold Medal. Dunn was awarded the Presidential Citizens Medal two years after the Capitol attack, on January 6, 2023. In January 2024, he announced his run for Congress, hoping to replace retiring Rep. John Sarbanes of Maryland’s third district.

This event is free and open to the public.
