SUMMARY:Women In Investment Management (Part 1): The Gender Short Situation
DESCRIPTION:Webinar. Diversification is a core principle of investing. Yet money managers have not applied it to their own ranks. Only around 10% of portfolio managers—the people most directly responsible for investing your money—are female\, and the numbers are even worse at the ownership level. What are the causes of this underrepresentation\, and what are its consequences—including for firms’ and clients’ bottom lines?

SUMMARY:Getting to Zero: How the US-China Race for Electric Vehicles is Changing the World
DESCRIPTION:Until recently\, a handful of fleet-footed Chinese companies and Tesla have dominated the Electric Vehicle market\, as US “legacy” carmakers dragged their feet. But with a new administration in Washington and GM & Ford both recently announcing a full-fledged switch to EVs\, the race is on. And the auto industry—from supply chains to labor force to data management—is being turned on its head. Can the U.S. catch up? Who are the Big Four Chinese companies already in the lead in China? Who will win the race? Where are the greatest opportunities? Ahead of the SH Auto Show\, join China EV expert Tu Le\, global auto industry expert John Paul MacDuffie\, and BYD USA executive Frank Girardot\, as they map out the road ahead.

SUMMARY:Wright and New York: The Making of America’s Architect
DESCRIPTION:Wright and New York turns upside down the conventional notion that Frank Lloyd Wright hated the city\, and the city was antagonistic to him. In this illustrated lecture based on his new book\, Anthony Alofsin outlines the developments in Wright’s life and work that demonstrate how New York turned around his career in the late 1920s and early 1930s to position him for the glory—and branding—of his final decades. The talk focuses on Wright’s visionary design for an immense Modern Cathedral to serve all religions and for the skyscraper\, he designed for the church of St. Marks-in-the-Bouwerie in New York’s East Village.

SUMMARY:Remembering Olga Lengyel And “Five Chimneys”
DESCRIPTION:In 1944\, Hungarian physician’s assistant Olga Lengyel was deported to Auschwitz along with her parents\, husband\, and two sons. She was put to work in the Auschwitz infirmary\, where she also secretly toiled for a French underground cell\, helping to demolish a crematory oven. At the end of the war\, she was the only member of her family to survive. Lengyel made her way to New York and\, in 1946\, published Five Chimneys: A Woman Survivor’s True Story of Auschwitz\, which became one of the earliest testimonies to depict the barbarism of the Nazis. Thirty years later\, her vivid exposé of the death camps inspired William Styron’s award-winning novel Sophie’s Choice. 20 years after Lengyel’s death in April 2001\, join the Museum and The Olga Lengyel Institute for a program exploring her remarkable life and legacy.

SUMMARY:The American Revolution and the Creation of American History
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Michael Hattem will discuss his book Past and Prologue: Politics and Memory in the American Revolution. Between the 1760s and 1800s\, Americans stopped thinking of the British past as their own history and created a new historical tradition that would form the foundation of what future generations would think of as “American history.” This process\, Hattem argues\, played a critical role in the founding of the nation. This lecture will take place via Zoom.

SUMMARY:“Plunder” Book Talk With Menachem Kaiser And Stephanie Butnick
DESCRIPTION:Menachem Kaiser’s new book Plunder: A Memoir of Family Property and Nazi Treasure is the story of his quest to reclaim his family’s apartment building in Poland—and of the astonishing entanglement with Nazi treasure hunters that follows. Kaiser’s story begins when he takes up his Holocaust survivor grandfather’s former battle to reclaim the family’s apartment building in Sosnowiec\, Poland. Soon\, Kaiser is on a circuitous path to encounters with the long-time residents of the building\, with a Polish lawyer known as “The Killer\,” and with a surprise discovery about his grandfather’s cousin that reshapes his quest. Join Kaiser for a conversation with Stephanie Butnick\, Tablet Magazine Deputy Editor and co-host of the leading Jewish podcast Unorthodox\, about Plunder and the profound questions it raises about family inheritance.

SUMMARY:Isabel Wilkerson And Rabbi Angela Buchdahl On “Caste”
DESCRIPTION:While working on her Pulitzer Prize-winning book The Warmth of Other Suns\, about the Great Migration of African Americans out of the Jim Crow South\, Isabel Wilkerson realized that the United States had an unspoken and deeply ingrained caste system. In her new book Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents\, a #1 New York Times bestseller and Oprah’s Book Club pick\, Wilkerson explores the impact of this American caste system—a rigid hierarchy of human divisions—and its connections to caste systems in India and Nazi Germany. She documents how the Nazis studied American race laws as they planned the German Nuremberg Laws\, and she points forward to ways that we can move beyond artificial and destructive separations towards a common humanity. Join Wilkerson and Rabbi Angela Warnick Buchdahl\, Senior Rabbi at New York’s Central Synagogue and the first Asian-American person to be ordained as cantor or rabbi in North America\, for a conversation about Caste\, the legacy of the Holocaust\, and what lies under the surface of American life today.
