Join us for our upcoming webinar events. We're scheduled to discuss the fight for academic freedom in America, Canada, and Britain, and the Miracle at New Orleans during the War of 1812.

This Thursday at 2 pm ET, NAS is hosting Fighting for Academic Freedom in America, Canada, and Britain. In this event, our speakers will discuss the ways in which academics may defend academic freedom in their institutions, continue their academic work while keeping their jobs, and ensure the tradition of academic freedom lives on under growing authoritarianism from within higher education.
 

The webinar will feature Bruce Gilley, professor of political science at Portland State University; Mark Mercer, president of the Society for Academic Freedom and Scholarship (Canada); and Toby Young, founder and general secretary of the Free Speech Union (UK). Moderators include Bruce Oliver Newsome, professor of political science at the University of San Diego, and David Randall, director of research at the NAS.

On Tuesday, June 22nd at 2 pm ET, we're hosting the next webinar in our American History Series, 1815: The Miracle at New Orleans. What made the Battle of New Orleans such a victory for the American forces? Why was it called "the miracle of New Orleans"? And what effects did the battle have on American international policy after the close of the war? Our experts will discuss these questions and more during the event.
 

1815 will feature Donald Hickey, a professor of history at Wayne State College; Brian Kilmeade, author of Andrew Jackson and the Miracle of New Orleans: The Battle That Shaped America's Destiny and co-host of Fox & Friends; and Joseph F. Stoltz, director of the George Washington Leadership Institute at Mount Vernon and author of A Bloodless Victory.
