SUMMARY:Globalist Coffeehouse
DESCRIPTION:Please join like-minded “global thinkers” for a monthly discussion on the major political/economic issues that our world is currently experiencing. \nThursday\, February 25th\, 6:30 -7:30 p.m. \nThis month’s topic will be: \n“US” in the 21st Century \nThe retrenchment from global leadership over the last few years has caused many to question and possibly reassess U.S. global leadership. With a new administration\, what actions can we take to reassert our leadership in the world?  Or\, has the country and the world changed too much to let this happen?  Will we be driving the train or just listening and partnering in multi-polar world? \nOn the other hand\, official policies do not necessarily reflect personal relationships. What are some of your own experiences living and traveling abroad? What did you learn from the people you met and befriended about their attitude towards our country? Do you think that they still feel the same way today?   Please join us for what will be a very interesting and lively discussion. \nInitially this event will be a virtual zoom discussion. \nTo register and receive the zoom invitation\, please click below:  \n  \nFor more details contact: \n  \nEllen Murry\, WAC Advisory Board \nellen.murry@yahoo.com \nPolina Anastassieva\, WAC management team \npolina@wacaustin.org
