SUMMARY:20 Years Later: The Destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas
DESCRIPTION:In March 2001\, the Taliban ordered and directed the demolition of two treasured symbols of Afghanistan’s pre-Islamic heritage: the Bamiyan Buddhas. The objective was to erase any cultural heritage inconsistent with their narrow vision of Islam. Twenty years later\, Dr. Morwari Zafar\, an anthropologist with experience in international development and national security\, and currently an adjunct lecturer at Georgetown University’s Security Studies program\, reflects on the relationship between al-Qaeda and the Taliban during this time and discusses the significance of cultural heritage in defining a country’s national identity.

SUMMARY:Legacies: Daniel Libeskind
DESCRIPTION:An international figure in architecture and urban design\, Daniel Libeskind is renowned for his ability to evoke cultural memory in buildings.

SUMMARY:The Invention of Public Space: Designing for Inclusion in Lindsay’s New York
DESCRIPTION:Skyscraper Museum webinar. In The Invention of Public Space: Designing for Inclusion in Lindsay’s New York\, Mariana Mogilevich details a watershed moment when designers\, government administrators\, and residents sought to remake New York City in the image of a diverse\, free\, and democratic society. Bringing together psychology\, politics\, and design\, her new book considers a broad array of projects in open spaces to affirm the value of city life in a moment of “urban crisis\,” and reveals the emergence of a concept of public space that remains today a powerful\, if unrealized\, aspiration. In Singapore\, his design for 18 Robinson integrates green space vertically throughout the structure.

SUMMARY:Pieces of China: Derek Sandhaus on Baijiu (白酒)\, China’s Fiery Alcohol
DESCRIPTION:For thousands of years\, Chinese emperors\, literati scholars\, and great men of letters have waxed poetic about the pleasures of getting drunk.  The distilled spirit known as “Baijiu\,” 白酒，was developed by the Ming dynasty\, but it was during the Communist era that this “working man’s drink” was elevated to the national sensation that we see in China today. Any businessperson will tell you that nary a deal can be sealed without a flurry of baijiu shots and bleary-eyed\, drunken toasts. Derek Sandhaus\, author of Drunk in China and founder of a Baijiu company\, will share the secrets of the world’s most fiery liquor. As China becomes more international\, how has its drinking culture changed? Will the West learn to drink baijiu and clink glasses with China?

SUMMARY:A New Perspective On The Rescue Of Denmark’s Jews
DESCRIPTION:More than 7\,000 Danish Jews were evacuated to Sweden in October 1943. After crossing the Øresund by boat and landing on Swedish shores\, approximately 6\,000 of the refugees were interviewed by the Swedish Police Authority\, to whom they disclosed a wealth of information about their lives in Denmark and the logistics of their escape. The Police Authority’s records have only recently been uncovered and explored by Danish scholars. Join Therkel Straede\, Professor of Contemporary History at the University of Southern Denmark in Odense\, for a discussion of the police records and what they reveal about this extraordinary feat of rescue.

SUMMARY:Occupied America: British Military Rule and the Experience of Revolution
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture\, Donald Johnson will discuss his book Occupied America: British Military Rule and the Experience of Revolution. In the midst of British military occupation\, men and women from a variety of backgrounds navigated harsh conditions\, mitigated threats to their families and livelihoods\, took advantage of new opportunities\, and balanced precariously between revolutionary and royal attempts to secure their allegiance. In so doing\, Johnson argues that these people and their experiences shaped the course of the Revolution\, gradually discrediting Britain’s ability to govern the former colonies and rotting their attempts to restore order from the inside out. This lecture will take place via Zoom. Registration ends at 3:30pm on the day of the lecture.
