Join NAS tomorrow at 2 pm ET as we discuss "1989: The Fall of Communism."
On June 12, 1987, President Ronald Reagan delivered his iconic speech at the Berlin Wall where he challenged Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev to "tear down this wall." President Reagan's challenge would be realized two years later when the Berlin Wall fell. This event marked the fall of communism and ushered in a new era of peace.
What events led to the fall of communism? How did the collapse of the communist system alter the international standing of the United States?
The webinar will feature Stephan Kieninger, author of The Diplomacy of Détente: Cooperative Security Policies from Helmut Schmidt to George Shultz; Elizabeth Spalding, Senior Fellow at the Pepperdine University School of Public Policy, Vice Chairman of the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation, and Founding Director of the Victims of Communism Museum; and David Tubbs, Associate Professor of Politics at The King's College.

Join NAS on Tuesday, April 22nd, at 1:30 pm ET, as we discuss "1933: FDR, WPA, and the New Deal."
In the depths of the Great Depression, FDR's New Deal promised relief to millions of Americans. Most notably, the Works Progress Administration provided jobs for unemployed men to complete public works projects including bridges, roads, parks, and public buildings.
How successful was the WPA at putting Americans to work and assisting them through the difficult years of the depression? Did other New Deal programs succeed? What legacy do the WPA and other New Deal programs leave behind today?
This event will feature William Chafe, Alice Mary Baldwin Professor of History, Emeritus, and a Co-Director of the Program on History, Public Policy, and Social Change at Duke University; Paul Moreno, William and Berniece Grewcock Chair in Constitutional History and Dean of Social Sciences at Hillsdale College; and Tiffany Miller, Associate Professor of Politics at the University of Dallas.
