SUMMARY:The Swan Princess: Free Virtual Performance
DESCRIPTION:We all need something to look forward to\, so the Atlanta Ballet has scheduled a free Virtual Sunday Matinee for all to enjoy together. \nJoin this Sunday\, April 12th at 2:00pm ET to watch Atlanta Ballet 2 perform The Swan Princess. \nThis is the first time Atlanta Ballet has shared an entire Atlanta Ballet 2 performance online. \nDress up in your Sunday best or watch in your PJs. Either way\, they hope you will be able to “attend” the premiere! Save your seat below\, and they will send you a direct link to the performance. \nThe Swan Princess features all of the mystery and magic of the beloved classic Swan Lake but fits the treasured story into a one-hour format for children that serves as a perfect introduction to ballet. Will Prince Siegfried be able to save Odette\, the beautiful swan princess\, from the reaches of the wicked Von Rothbart? \nAt just over one-hour long\, their family ballet may be designed for the youngest audience members\, ages 12 and under\, but this dazzling production can be enjoyed by children and adults alike.

SUMMARY:Covert Military Ops: Strategy vs. Legality International Relations & National Security
DESCRIPTION:The drone strike that shook the world. The assassination of Qasem Soleimani\, Iranian Major General of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps\, threated to tip U.S.-Iran hostilities into war. President Trump justified the attack; the U.S. accuses Soleimani for acts of terrorism and for being the arcquitect of operations that killed hundreds of soldiers during the Iraq war. In Iran\, a major contrast: many lauded the powerful commander as a hero.\n\nThe attack prompted significant questions. How legal is for the U.S. President to carry these covert operations? Was this attack strategically wise as for making Americans safer or just a reckless escalation?\n\nProfessor Laurie Blank from Emory Law School in conversation with Professor Carrie Lee from the Air War College will shed light on this issue as they discuss the role of the U.S. military around the world and the premises to understand what’s legal and strategic when it comes to such high-level military operations.\n\nThis online program is a membership benefit.
