SUMMARY:America's Purpose Statement: The Declaration Of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The most important sentence ever written by an American – a sentence that has inspired people in every part of the world – is found in America’s purpose statement! Click here to read more. The legacy of Washington\, Hancock\, Franklin\, Jefferson\, Adams\, Hamilton\, and Paul Revere still challenges us. \n \nOn a stifling July Thursday in 1776\, our Founding Fathers agreed to a completely unique document in the world’s history. There had been many revolutions over the centuries\, but never had one begun with a philosophical purpose statement. \nAlthough the Declaration of Independence has no legal power\, the Declaration has become the guiding beacon for what America strives to become. As the events of 2020 showed\, we as a nation are a world leader in human rights\, yet\, America is still a work in progress. \n \nWhy study the Declaration of Independence? Because it is the ultimate statement of what we hope to become. It has been quoted by freedom movements in the USA and worldwide. \nYet many Americans know surprisingly little about it. In this exciting and thought-provoking multimedia presentation\, I will present the thrilling themes\, difficult negotiations\, contradictory\, complex\, charismatic personalities\, and exciting events leading to the most critical moment in American history. \n

SUMMARY:1973 Time Capsule
DESCRIPTION:My popular ‘Time Capsule’ series lands in the fascinating year of 1973! We will look at the people\, events\, music\, movies\, and inventions that dominated the news 50 years ago. \nWe will look at the stories of some of the famous people who were born and those who died\, examine the most impactful news stories\, and consumer prices from that amazing year of 1973. \n.

SUMMARY:Gideon\, Escobedo\, Miranda - Protecting The Accused
DESCRIPTION:  \nMiranda rights have become so familiar that most of us can recite them from memory – even though we have never been accused of a crime! \nThe “Warren Court” of the 1960s was tasked with interpreting the Bill Of Rights for an America that James Madison could not have envisioned.  They revolutionized our understanding of the rights of defendants and expanded our knowledge of the Constitution. \nThe “Roberts Court” of today has the same problem.  Consider: how does the original interpretation of the Federal Constitution apply in situations that did not exist in 1787?  When James Madison and the  Founders wrote the original Constitution\, they did not envision the need to search automobiles for cocaine\, stop terrorist hijackers from bringing shoe bombs on airplanes\, the need to search locked personal cell phones for call history that might be used to solve a kidnapping or deal with the admissibility of electronic surveillance gathered from drones? \nIn this fascinating multimedia presentation\, you will learn the historical background and continuing impact of three of the most critical cases in Supreme Court history. \nPLEASE NOTE: REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED – Don’t hesitate to get in touch with the venue for more information!

SUMMARY:The Rise Of Barack Obama
DESCRIPTION:At the 2004 Democratic National Convention\, a then-unknown Illinois state legislator delivered one of the greatest convention speeches in American political history. Overnight\, Barack Obama went from being a “skinny guy with a funny name” to being talked about as a future presidential candidate. \nHis unique personal story and unparalleled rise in American politics make for a fascinating presentation. \nThis multimedia look at Barack Obama will not primarily focus on his presidency or policies. Instead\, we will look deeply at his complex and utterly unique family history as we trace the factors that led to his improbable ascension to the presidency.

SUMMARY:Medgar Evers: Is It Ever Too Late To Do The Right Thing?
DESCRIPTION:Medgar Evers Is My Hero.\nMedgar Evers\, a brave Civil Rights leader\, was assassinated in the driveway of his home\, murdered by a Ku Klax Klan leader bent on blood. \nWhat offense had Medgar Evers committed? He was trying to register African Americans to vote in Mississippi in 1963.  \nHis murderer was quickly identified – but lived as a free man for thirty years until an unstoppable wife\, a dogged newspaperman\, and a brilliant prosecutor managed to get the case reopened.  On the fortieth anniversary of Medgar Evers’ murder\, I hosted the official National Day Of Remembrance and had the chance to meet and befriend his widow\, his family\, and many of his friends. I will bring their tremendously moving personal stories to life. \nMyrlie Evers hugs Barry Bradford’s students. \nThis multimedia presentation is very personal to me. You will be amazed by the story – it is jam-packed with inside information on the thrilling trial\, amazing anecdotes\, and a heavy dose of drama.  The trial of the murderer of Medgar Evers proved to be an important and emotional turning point in American law and history will come alive as you witness whether it is ever too late to do the right thing. \n  \n

SUMMARY:America's Purpose Statement: The Declaration Of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The most important sentence ever written by an American – a sentence that has inspired people in every part of the world – is found in America’s purpose statement! Click here to read more. The legacy of Washington\, Hancock\, Franklin\, Jefferson\, Adams\, Hamilton\, and Paul Revere still challenges us. \n \nOn a stifling July Thursday in 1776\, our Founding Fathers agreed to a completely unique document in the world’s history. There had been many revolutions over the centuries\, but never had one begun with a philosophical purpose statement. \nAlthough the Declaration of Independence has no legal power\, the Declaration has become the guiding beacon for what America strives to become. As the events of 2020 showed\, we as a nation are a world leader in human rights\, yet\, America is still a work in progress. \n \nWhy study the Declaration of Independence? Because it is the ultimate statement of what we hope to become. It has been quoted by freedom movements in the USA and worldwide. \nYet many Americans know surprisingly little about it. In this exciting and thought-provoking multimedia presentation\, I will present the thrilling themes\, difficult negotiations\, contradictory\, complex\, charismatic personalities\, and exciting events leading to the most critical moment in American history. \n

The baby boom was in full swing; we read the famous “Dewey defeats Truman” headline\, and “Uncle Milty” – the one and only Milton Berle – made Americans run out and buy their first television! 1948 brought one of the most exciting upset elections of all time; Israel was born\, as was Billy Crystal\, Gandhi was assassinated\, and the first instant cameras were used. \n\

SUMMARY:History Vs. the Movies: Mississippi Burning
DESCRIPTION: History Vs. the Movies: Mississippi Burning\nMississippi Burning: The Civil Rights Era is one of the most exciting\, important\, and electrifying eras in American history. \nIt had everything from a cinematic standpoint: dynamic lead characters\, powerful and determined villains\, mystery\, mood\, motivation\, and manipulation. Nonetheless\, movies about the era have generally not been hits\, and despite the hype about Selma\, no great masterpiece of filmmaking has yet emerged. “Mississippi Burning”  is a brilliant film but utter nonsense from a historical point of view. “Selma” is a maddening jumble. In its sections on Martin Luther King\, it is extraordinary. In its sections on Lyndon Johnson\, it is entirely misleading. “Ghosts of Mississippi” is an earnest and well-made film about the trial of the murderer of Medgar Evers. However\, unless you already knew quite a bit about Medgar Evers\, you would leave the film wondering who exactly he was. \nSome of the best films about the Civil Rights Movement have been made-for-TV films. Clark Johnson directed “Boycott”  for HBO\, and it combines arresting visuals with superb acting. The Rosa Parks made-for-TV movie was likewise excellent. Spike Lee directed an outstanding documentary\, “Four Little Girls.”  But so far\, a genuine cinematic masterpiece about the Civil Rights Era has eluded filmmakers. \nThis fast-moving and thought-provoking multimedia presentation will look at clips from some films about the Civil Rights Movement.   Our particular focus will be on “Mississippi Burning.” Using inside stories\, personal anecdotes\, and a clear timeline\, we will see how this brilliantly made film distorted history and changed America’s perceptions about the Movement. \nCheck this out: in “Mississippi Burning\,”  the FBI gets an invaluable ship to find where the bodies are buried. The screenwriter and director had to fictionalize where the tip came from. That is because the mystery informant had never been revealed. Working with the brilliant investigative reporter Jerry Mitchell\, I was able to help figure out where the tip had come from – Jerry uncovered the identity of the mysterious “Mr. X.” Click here to find out who he was! \n.
