SUMMARY:Eddie Palmieri: Legendary Mambo Master
DESCRIPTION:Eddie Palmieri—whose musical career began at age 11 and spans over 50 years\, includes three-dozen recordings\, and boasts nine Grammy Awards—is quite simply a salsa and Latin jazz legend.

Their historical relevance is unquestioned. For the first time ever\, the political and military leaders responsible for a war were charged and convicted in a court of law. The event generated huge interest\, in particular as the Allies intended it be used as a lesson for future generations. Despite that long-sighted goal\, however\, in the years following have we really become capable of learning from historical mistakes?

SUMMARY:From Brexit to Trump: Populism on the March Across the West
DESCRIPTION:Countries from the United Kingdom\, to Colombia\, to the United States are facing contradicting political narratives with one component in common: populism. Populism has variants: left- and right-wing\, from Bernie Sanders to Trump\, from Syriza (leftist party in Greece) to the National Party in France. David Rennie\, the Washington bureau chief of The Economist magazine\, argues American politics are experiencing a shift as right-left labels are less and less useful to define national politics as populism “sweeps the rich\, democratic world.” \nRennie\, an award winning journalist who has been critical of the Trump Administration in his Lexington column\, will speak about how American populism confounds conventional political analysis. He will offer examples from Europe on how to confront it badly\, and explain why the U.S. has strengths to deal with populism in a positive way. \nRennie will be in conversation with Robyn Curnow\, CNN anchor and host of “CNN’s International Desk with Robyn Curnow\,” which airs weekdays at 11:00 a.m. ET. Curnow has extensive experience covering critical events from anchoring CNN’s coverage of the terror attacks in Paris and Brussels\, to Obama’s historic visit to Cuba\, to hosting exclusive interviews with George W. Bush and Michelle Obama. \nMembers: $15. Nonmembers $25.

The Joel family story tragically mirrors the history of many within the 20th century. Together the Joels fled Nazi Germany to the United States\, to overcome oppression and poverty. \nThe doors open at 6:00 PM. The program officially begins at 6:30 PM with a special performance of some of Billy Joel’s most famous songs by Stefan Angele and Wernder Kandzoraby. The performance will be followed by a Q&A session with Steffen Radmaier\, a journalist and author from Nuremberg who tells the Joel family’s story. \nAbout Billy Joel’s German-Jewish Ancestry \nIn the 1920s\, Karl Armson\, a Jew from Nuremberg\, and his wife had saved up enough money to open a garment trading company. Business was good and it could have been the perfect success story if Adolf Hitler had not taken power in Germany. Together with their first son\, Helmut\, the Joels fled from the Nazis\, first to Berlin\, later to Switzerland. Their company was sold for a low price to Josef Neckermann who later became the German catalogue company mogul. The Joel family reached Cuba and travelled on to New York where they lived on the poverty line. Helmut married Rosalind Nyman from Brooklyn and their son William “Billy” Martin (now known as Billy Joel) was born in 1949. When the marriage broke apart\, Helmut went back to Germany on his own\, married again and had his second son Alexander. Today Alexander is an internationally acclaimed conductor. Helmut´s first son Billy has sold over 100 million records and is one of the most successful solo artists of Pop music with hits like “River of Dreams” or “Just the Way You Are”. \nAbout the musical performers \nStefan Angele and Wernder Kandzora perform some of the most famous Billy Joel songs from”Just the Way You Are” to “Piano Man”. Their performance pays homage to this great artist who enthuses and touches his audience every time he performance his songs.
