SUMMARY:Diana: Life Of The The People's Princess
DESCRIPTION:Diana: Glamorous And Tragic Life Of a Princess \nLady Diana Spencer was the “People’s Princess” beloved worldwide for her compassion as much as for her glamour. \nSweet\, pretty Lady Diana Spencer was a shy and charming kindergarten teacher when she caught the eye of Prince Charles\, heir to the throne of Great Britain. At first\, to the public\, her story seemed like a fairytale. A pretty young girl had been plucked out of obscurity to marry the dashing Prince. But the truth of Diana’s private life was very different from the public perception. \nIn 1981\, an estimated 750 million people worldwide watched the beautiful 20-year-old Diana Spencer marry her handsome Prince Charles amidst all the pomp and circumstance of the British Empire. But barely more than ten years later\, she was bitterly divorced with two children\, suffering from severe depression and eating disorders\, brought out by the realization that her incredible and diffident husband had been having an affair with a long-time girlfriend\, Camilla Parker-Bowles. \nAfter Princess Diana’s ugly public divorce\, she became an outcast from the British Royal family. Despite that\, she became even more beloved by the British public! She was seen as an affectionate and doting mother\, an icon of fashion style\, and\, most importantly\, a tireless champion for humanitarian causes. Diana met with Mother Teresa to bring attention to the global aid epidemic. She risked her life trying to read war zones of the scourge of land mines.  \nWherever she went\, whatever she did\, and whomever she dated\, Diana’s every move was followed by the insatiable British press. They detailed Diana’s every date\, every vacation\, and every outfit. \nWhen Princess Diana died in a horrible car crash\, she was mourned by the world. The outpouring of grief in Britain forever changed the nation’s view of the monarchy. Diana’s unexpected life\, veering between glamour and tragedy\, and her sudden and controversial death make for an unforgettable story. \n  \nMore Info\nThis program is offered live and in person at the Northbrook Senior Center. There is a fee to attend. Please get in touch with the organizer to register!

SUMMARY:What Just Happened - February 2023 Current Events (AM)
DESCRIPTION:Once a month\, you can be part of a current events discussion presentation discussion with a twist. Award-winning  professional historian Barry Bradford will help us learn “What Just Happened?” \nThis session is unique because we will not just talk about our opinions about the news but also learn the history behind the events and their underlying significance. For instance\, when the Republicans deadlocked over their election of Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy\, it wasn’t the first time a speaker election went into overtime. We’ll learn about those historic occasions. Then we will understand WHY the Republican party was so divided over this issue. The history of that division will inform us about future decisions and political consequences. \nWe’ll go through a number of the most exciting events of the month\, and there will be plenty of time for you to ask questions and offer your thoughts. \nIMPORTANT NOTE: ALL comments and questions must be respectfully asked using appropriate language. Speeches and misinformation will be terminated at the express choice of the moderator. \nTHIS PROGRAM WILL BE PRESENTED ONLINE. \nCOST \nI ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00.
