SUMMARY:“Challenges of Leadership in Our Democracy”  With Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta
DESCRIPTION:“Challenges of Leadership in Our Democracy” \nWith Sec. Leon Panetta \n(Secretary of Defense\, 2011-2013 \nDirector of the CIA\, 2009-2011) \nA Zoom Webinar event \nTuesday\, March 8th\, 2021 at 1:00 PM PST \nConversation moderated by Dr. Richard Downie \n— \nSpeaker Bio: \nThe son of Italian immigrants\, born and raised in Monterey and graduate of Santa Clara University and Santa Clara University School of Law\, Secretary Panetta began his long and distinguished public service career in 1964 as a First Lieutenant in the United States Army\, and upon discharge went to work in Washington as a legislative assistant to United States Senate Minority Whip Tom Kuchel of California. In 1969\, he was appointed director of the Department of Health\, Education and Welfare’s Office for Civil Rights\, where he was responsible for enforcing equal education laws. Later\, he served as executive assistant to the mayor of New York City. He then returned to Monterey\, where he practiced law until his election to the United States House of Representatives in 1976. \nServing in Congress for sixteen years\, Secretary Panetta was a key participant in agriculture\, healthcare\, ocean and federal budget issues. From 1989 to 1993\, he chaired the House Budget Committee. He authored a wide range of legislation\, including the Hunger Prevention Act of 1988\, Medicare and Medicaid coverage for hospice care for the terminally ill\, and numerous measures to protect the California coast\, including creation of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. \nIn 1993\, Secretary Panetta left Congress to serve as director of the Office of Management and Budget for the Clinton administration. There\, he was instrumental in developing the policies that led to a balanced federal budget and eventual surpluses. In 1994\, he accepted appointment as the president’s chief of staff\, and immediately brought order and focus to White House operations. \nUpon leaving the Clinton administration in 1997\, Secretary Panetta joined with his wife Sylvia to establish and co-direct The Panetta Institute for Public Policy\, based at California State University\, Monterey Bay. Reflecting Secretary Panetta’s own ideals and personal example\, the nonpartisan\, not-for-profit study center seeks to attract thoughtful men and women to lives of public service and prepare them for the policy challenges of the future. \nReturning to public service in the Obama administration as director of the CIA\, he ran the operation that brought Osama bin Laden to justice\, and\, as Secretary of Defense\, led the effort to develop a new defense strategy\, helped bring two wars to an end\, and opened up opportunities for everyone to serve in the military. \nSecretary Panetta returned to the Panetta Institute as chairman on February 27\, 2013 and resumed his role as moderator of the renowned Leon Panetta Lecture Series. He chronicles his life in public service in his best-selling memoir Worthy Fights\, which was published in 2014.

SUMMARY:Small World Cafe: Contextualizing the Crisis in Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 14\, 1pm EST \nAfter the February 24 Russian invasion of Ukraine the world watched in horror as the situation rapidly escalated into a full-on war and refugee crisis. As Americans struggle to follow this crisis\, we cannot begin to understand a possible outcome without a full picture view of the historical events and motivations that have shaped Russia’s actions. To contextualize this crisis\, Dr. Steven Miner of Ohio University will share with us a history of Russia’s foreign policy aims since the end of the Cold War\, Ukraine’s priorities and challenges as a young democracy\, and Putin’s nationalistic rhetoric and motivations for pursuing Ukraine. \nSpeakers:  \nDr. Steven Miner\, Professor\, Department of History\, Ohio University \nSteven M. Miner is Professor in the Department of History. He is a specialist in recent Russian/Soviet and East European history. He is currently at work on a history of the Soviet Union during the Second World War\, tentatively titled The Furies Unleashed: The Soviet People at War\, 1941-1945\, to be published in the United States by Simon and Schuster and in Great Britain by Bloomsbury. \n**This program takes place via Zoom from 1-2 PM EST as part of the 2022 Small World Cafe series with the World Affairs Council of Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky and Gulf Coast Diplomacy of Pensacola\, Florida.

SUMMARY:NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS (NFTS) AND THE GLOBAL ART MARKET
DESCRIPTION:Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are best described as “bitcoin for art.” NFTs allow pictures\, videos\, music\, or anything other form of visual or digital culture to be to be traded\, stored or authenticate. NFTs allow artits to see and protect their digitial creations as the block-chain technology means NFTs cannot be duplicated without permission. However\, because there is no real oversight or regulation\, NFTs are easy to exploit.  Louise Carron\, an associate at Klaris law\, will be helping us understand this new frontier in the global art trade. \nLouise Carron is an Associate at Klaris Law who is passionate about advising entrepreneurs\, start-ups\, and nonprofits across creative industries. Primarily focusing on contract matters\, copyright use\, and new technologies\, Louise particularly enjoys helping artists protect their creations\, rights\, and legacies. \nPrior to joining Klaris Law\, Louise spent three years as the Executive Director of the Center for Art Law\, where she ran daily operations\, taught workshops on legal basics for artists\, and mentored interns. She also worked on various transactional and litigation matters with J. Greenberger PLLC. \nLouise has written on numerous topics at the junction of art and law\, including street art and NFTs\, and she is a regular contributor to the Entertainment\, Arts and Sports Law (EASL) Journal published by the New York State Bar Association. She appeared on various panels and podcasts\, co-chairs the EASL Pro-Bono Steering Committee\, and is a member of the Art Law Committee of the New York City Bar Association. She also serves as secretary of the Center for Art Law’s board of directors. \nLouise grew up Paris\, France\, where she pursued a double Bachelor’s in French Law and Common Law and a Master’s in Comparative Business Law. She also earned an LL.M from the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law (NY) with a concentration in Fashion\, Art\, Media and Entertainment Law. She lives in Brooklyn and is admitted to practice in New York State.

SUMMARY:Japan America Community Night with FC Cincinnati
DESCRIPTION:Let’s show our support for FC Cincinnati and their powerful Japanese striker\, Yuya Kubo\, currently the only Japanese (and our only known-Asian) MLS player in the United States. \nTake advantage of discounted tickets for this event\, courtesy FC Cincinnati\, in one of several sections of TQL Stadium reserved for JASGC members\, friends\, and anyone who wishes to purchase tickets via this link. \nUse code JACN22 for the discount.  \n(This discount is available through May 9 only. For tickets after that date\, please contact Brandon Jones at FC Cincinnati.) \nWe are pleased to be able to offer this event in May\, during Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. According to Wikipedia\, the US Congress chose the month of May for two reasons: On May 7\, 1843\, the first Japanese immigrant arrived in the United States. And more than two decades later\, on May 10\, 1869\, the “Golden Spike” was driven into the First Transcontinental Railroad\, which made heavy use of Chinese labor. Since its inception\, awareness of AAPI Heritage Month has grown considerably\, with more events taking place in Greater Cincinnati this year than ever before.
