SUMMARY:2022 Dunwoody Great Decisions Virtual Lecture Series: Industrial Policy
DESCRIPTION:Presented by the Georgia Council for International Visitors (GCIV) in partnership with the Atlanta Global Studies Center\, the annual 2022 Dunwoody Great Decisions Foreign Policy Lecture Series will take place via Zoom every Thursday evening from February 3 – March 31\, 2022 at 7:30 PM. There is a fee to register for the virtual lecture series\, and registration is required to receive the event link. \nThis week’s Topic: Industrial Policy \n\nSpeaker: Dr. John McIntyre\, Georgia Institute of Technology\n\nThe current discussion of industrial policy in the United States is not simply about whether or not to support specific companies or industries\, but about trust or mistrust of the government and its ability to manage the economy and deal with a rising China. The upheaval in supply chains during the pandemic exposed weaknesses in the international economy. What policies can the United States implement to deal with trade and the economy? \nAbout the Series: \nGreat Decisions\, presented by the Foreign Policy Association (FPA)\, highlights the most thought-provoking foreign policy challenges facing Americans each year. GCIV is the statewide coordinator for the nonpartisan program. There is a bonus ninth topic included in 2022\, to view the other 2022 topics or learn more about Great Decisions\, visit Gciv.org/programs/gd.

SUMMARY:William Neuman: Author of 'Things Are Never So Bad That They Can't Get Worse: Inside the Collapse of Venezuela'
DESCRIPTION:Today\, Venezuela is a country of perpetual crisis—a country of rolling blackouts\, nearly worthless currency\, uncertain supply of water and food\, and extreme poverty. In the same land where oil—the largest reserve in the world—sits so close to the surface that it bubbles from the ground\, where gold and other mineral resources are abundant\, and where the government spends billions of dollars on public works projects that go abandoned\, the supermarket shelves are bare and the hospitals have no medicine. Twenty percent of the population has fled\, creating the largest refugee exodus in the world\, rivaling only war-torn Syria’s crisis. Venezuela’s collapse affects all of Latin America\, as well as the United States and the international communityRepublicans like to point to Venezuela as the perfect example of the emptiness of socialism\, but it is a better model for something else: the destructive potential of charismatic populist leadership. The ascent of Hugo Chávez was a precursor to the emergence of strongmen that can now be seen all over the world\, and the success of the corrupt economy he presided over only lasted while oil sold for more than $100 a barrel. Chávez’s regime and policies\, which have been reinforced under Nicolás Maduro\, squandered abundant resources and ultimately bankrupted the country. \nThings Are Never So Bad That They Can’t Get Worse is a fluid combination of journalism\, memoir\, and history that chronicles Venezuela’s tragic journey from petro-riches to poverty. Author William Neuman witnessed it all firsthand while living in Caracas and serving as the New York Times Andes Region Bureau Chief. His book paints a clear-eyed\, riveting\, and highly personal portrait of the crisis unfolding in real time\, with all of its tropical surrealism\, extremes of wealth and suffering\, and gripping drama. It is also a heartfelt reflection of the country’s great beauty and vibrancy—and the energy\, passion\, and humor of its people\, even under the most challenging circumstances. \nAbout the Author \nWilliam Neuman is an author and journalist who reported for the New York Times for over 15 years. He served as the Times Andes Region Bureau Chief from 2012 to 2016 while based in Caracas\, Venezuela. He previously reported for the New York Post and his work has also been featured by the San Francisco Chronicle\, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram\, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel\, and The Independent\, among others. He began his journalism career while living in Mexico and has published English translations of several Spanish-language novels. \nPromotional language provided by publisher.

SUMMARY:Atlanta Francophonie Festival 2022 | Live Concert: Arma Jackson
DESCRIPTION:Venez fêter avec nous le Mois de la Francophonie!\nWe are excited to invite you to our live concert with Swiss-artist Arma Jackson. It takes place on Sun\, March 27 from 5:00 PM – 6:30 PM at the Old Monk Brewery in Atlanta. Food & beverages can be bought at the location\, however the event is free and open to the public. Nous sommes enthousiastes! \nAbout the artist: Arma Jackson\, real name Jordan Mfumu-Kanda Dhi\, born 23 January 1995 in Lausanne\, is a Swiss singer-songwriter. It was by stumbling upon his older brother’s old cassettes that Arma Jackson discovered the world of rap at the age of 10 and later found a passion for beat-making. He gradually opened his ears to other genres to create his own musical bubble\, from Michael Jackson to Coldplay\, via Aznavour. A diversity from which he draws his inspiration. A first key to understand the singularity and creativity of his music\, between rap egotrip\, neo-soul sounds\, acid pop and house music. His first album\, Idéal\, was released last year. The recipient of the 2021 Swiss Music Award for Best Artist from Francophone Switzerland\, Arma Jackson is making a name for himself beyond Swiss borders.

SUMMARY:"Of Quilts and Clay: African-American Applied Arts and Sculpture of the 20th Century" with John Daniel Tilford
DESCRIPTION:This lecture by John Daniel Tilford\, Curator of Collections at the Oglethorpe University Museum of Art\, will focus on the rich artistic heritage of both the Gee’s Bend community of quilters in Southern Alabama and late 19th/early 20th century potters of the old Edgefield District in South Carolina. Once dismissed as purely practical and utilitarian objects\, the quilts and pottery created by these two communities are now heralded as great works of art. Placing such works in a historical context — like in “Beloved Community” — can help foster greater appreciation for quilt and pottery as more than just tools.\nAdmission is $10 at the door for non-members. Free with Petrel Pass.\nDirections and map: https://museum.oglethorpe.edu/about/directions-map/
