SUMMARY:Kevin Cassidy: Global Supply Chains
DESCRIPTION:The Global Supply Chain is too complex\, interconnected\, and fragile to be made completely immune to shocks\, especially ones such as seismic as a global pandemic\, or a major war. Major ports the world over\, which used to operate like clockwork\, are now beset by delays\, with container ships queuing for days in some of the worst congestion ever recorded. A backlog of orders and a shortage of drivers have caused trucking costs to triple. More than a million containers due to travel to Europe from China by train — on a route that goes through Russia — must now make their journey by sea as sanctions bite. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has also severed key supply lines for nickel\, aluminum\, wheat\, and sunflower oil\, causing commodity prices to skyrocket. \nDespite the difficulties of today’s supply crisis\, Kevin Cassidy is optimistic about the opportunities being created.  He believes it is an exciting time for businesses and labor to rethink supply chains and make them stronger for companies\, workers and people around the world.

SUMMARY:Kent Harrington: Living with Kim Chong and North Korea’s Nuclear Threat
DESCRIPTION: Living with Kim Chong and North Korea’s Nuclear Threat\nDespite seven decades of American military and political engagement on the Korean peninsula\, Pyongyang’s dynastic communist regime continues to challenge US policymakers as well as stability in East Asia.  Like its predecessors\, the Biden administration has sought to mix diplomacy and deterrence\, while cooperating with its allies in Seoul\, Tokyo\, and elsewhere to constrain North Korea’s nuclear threat.  The results: like his father and grandfather\, Kim Chong Un has continued to build his nuclear arsenal despite the costs to Pyongyang and the North Korean people.  70 years after the end of the Korean war\, the question is obvious.  Is the past prologue?  Is Kim’s arsenal simply a fact we must live with\, and if it is\, what are the risks?

SUMMARY:Marie Yovanovitch- Ukraine: Can Democracy Survive?
DESCRIPTION:Marie Yovanovitch was at the height of her diplomatic career when it all came crashing down. In the middle of her third ambassadorship—a rarity in the world of diplomacy—she was targeted by a smear campaign and abruptly recalled from her post in Kyiv\, Ukraine. In the months that followed\, she endured personal tragedy while simultaneously being pulled into the blinding lights of the first impeachment inquiry of Donald Trump. It was a time of chaos and pain\, for her and for the nation. \nYet Yovanovitch was no stranger to instability and injustice. Born into a family that had survived Soviet and Nazi terror\, she first saw the corrosive effect of corruption in Somalia while cutting her teeth as a diplomat in the male-dominated world of the 1980s State Department. She was an eyewitness to the 1993 constitutional crisis in Russia and the street fighting in Moscow. And she rose to the top of her profession in the crucible of the former USSR\, where she saw how President Vladimir Putin adeptly exploited corrupt leaders in neighboring countries and undermined their developing democracies. \nNowhere was Putin’s aggression clearer than in Ukraine\, where Russia meddled in elections\, launched cyberattacks\, peddled misinformation\, illegally annexed Crimea\, invaded the Donbas\, and attacked Ukrainian ships in the Black Sea. But when Yovanovitch was abruptly recalled from her post and Ukraine’s democratically elected president\, Volodymyr Zelenskyy\, found himself set upon by Trump\, it became clear just how dangerously close to the edge America itself had strayed. \nThrough it all\, Yovanovitch tirelessly advocated for the Ukrainian people\, while advancing U.S. interests and staying true to herself. She will discuss Ukraine’s prospects going forward and discuss whether the Ukrainian democracy can survive.

SUMMARY:The Petroleum Industry
DESCRIPTION:The global petroleum industry is central to so many facets of life and essential to the global economy\, yet it is also a strategic necessity. Crude and its many refinements are also part of a geopolitical contest\, the lifeblood of military campaigns\, and an elevator to rising GDP. And yet how long can it last\, is there a “crude curse”\, how does the global supply chain work\, what impact on the environment\, and do current events have on the security of our national supply and the world? \nCarlton Dallas\, a petroleum industry insider\, will review the impact of taxes\, price comparisons with other countries\, the history of discovery\, relay how crude is tethered to politics\, and how four developments have improved US energy independence.

SUMMARY:The U.S. Mexican Relationship- It's Complicated- Ambassador Earl Anthony Wayne
DESCRIPTION:What is the best approach to the Mexican migration problem?\nIs the weakening of Mexican Democracy a threat to the U.S.?\nWhat economic tools can Biden employ to help influence Mexico to improve its relations with the U.S.?\n\nEarl Anthony Wayne will discuss the important and complicated relationship between Mexico and the United States.  No country relationship touches the daily lives of more Americans than the relationship with our southern neighbor.  Mexico is a vital economic partner as America’s second-largest trading partner and the largest buyer of U.S. exports.  Yet\, Mexico and the U.S. also need to manage incredibly challenging problems surrounding migration and cross-border crime\, for example.  Getting cooperation right between the two neighbors is a particularly tricky task\, but there are no ways around working to make it better — neither of us can move away! \nAmbassador Earl Anthony Wayne is a Distinguished Diplomat in Residence teaching at American University’s School of International Service.  He is also a Public Policy Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and Co-Chair of its Mexico Institute Advisory Board. In addition\, he is a Senior Non-Resident Advisor at the Atlantic Council and the Center for Security and International Studies. He serves on the Board of the American Academy of Diplomacy.  Wayne writes\, speaks\, and consults on a wide range of topics.

SUMMARY:Once Upon A Mattress
DESCRIPTION:Once Upon a Mattress\, a family-friendly musical fairy tale\, comes to Hilton Head High School stage from Tuesday\, April 26th through Saturday\, April 30 at 7 PM as well as a special 2:00 PM matinee on Sunday\, May 1st. Admission is $20 for adults and $10 for students. \nMany think they know the story of ‘The Princess and The Pea\,’ however they may be in for a gigantic surprise! Most don’t know that Princess Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab? Or that Lady Larken’s love for Sir Harry provided a convincing and immediate reason that she and Sir Harry must reach the bridal altar? Or that\, in fact\, it wasn’t the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night? Carried on a wave of delightful songs\, by turns hysterical and rowdy\, passionate and sweet\, this romping take on the traditional classic of royal wooing and retribution provides some side-splitting shenanigans. Audiences will never look at fairy tales quite the same way again. \nUnder the artistic direction of Kimberly Guinn\, Theater Company Director\, the musical direction of Josh Wall\, and Choreography of Tori Montgomery\, this PG-rated musical showcases the many talents of Hilton Head Island High Schools dedicated student actors and crew members. \nOnce Upon a Mattress–with music by Mary Rodgers\, lyrics by Marshall Barer\, and book by Jay Thompson\, Dean Fuller\, and Marshall Barer–is presented through special arrangement with R&H Theatricals (www.rnh.com). For more information\, please contact Hilton Head Island High School Theater Director Kimberly Guinn at Kimberly.guinn@beaufort.k12.sc.us.

SUMMARY:Ambassador Douglas Silliman- The Changing Landscape of the Middle EAst
DESCRIPTION:Can the Middle East move away from its oil-centric economic base?\nHow can countries work to soothe ethnic and religious differences?\nHow are the leaders preparing the next generation of young people for the job market?\n\n Fundamental forces are in the process of changing the societal and economic landscape of the Middle East. Region-specific conditions combine with more universal factors—the sweeping tide of globalization\, technical progress\, and the introduction of more powerful communication tools. \n Meanwhile\, the Middle East is marked by its historical legacy of powerful ancient civilization followed by centuries of relative stagnation. More recently\, rapid economic growth and social change have been seen in parts of the region\, including GCC countries. However\, much of the progress achieved thus far \nremains dependent on a narrow economic base\, notably the riches emanating from abundant oil and gas extraction. Other countries across the Middle East remain plagued by underdevelopment. \nAmb. Silliman will discuss the challenges and opportunities of the Biden administration\, considering the changing landscape of the Middle East.   Such changes include the Gulf states as regional players\, JCPOA and Iran\, human rights reform in Saudi Arabia\, and other regional power alliances.  Moreover\, these changes will occur within the context of a post-Covid pandemic economic recovery and climate change.

SUMMARY:How Democracies Die- Daniel Ziblatt
DESCRIPTION:Is our Democracy in danger of failing?\nWhat are the main reasons for the weakening of our Democracy?\nWhat can leaders do to strengthen the U.S. democratic rule of law?\n\n Trump’s presidency has raised a question that many of us never thought Americans would be asking: Is our Democracy in danger? Harvard professor Daniel Ziblatt has spent more than twenty years studying the breakdown of democracies in Europe and Latin America and believes the answer is yes. Democracy no longer ends with a bang—in a revolution or military coup—but with a whimper: the slow\, steady weakening of critical institutions\, such as the judiciary and the press\, and the gradual erosion of long-standing political norms. The good news is that there are several exit ramps on the road to authoritarianism. The bad news is that\, by electing Trump\, we have already passed the first one. \nDrawing on decades of research and a wide range of historical and global examples\, from 1930s Europe to contemporary Hungary\, Turkey\, and Venezuela\, to the American South during Jim Crow\, Levitsky shows how democracies die—and how ours can be saved.
