My name is justin. I am the president of the National Civic arts society. We are delighted you could join us this evening to hear sabin howard resent his classical design for the National World war i memorial. Founded in 2002, the society educates and empowers our leaders in the promotion of public art and architecture worthy of a great republic. We do so by advocating for the Classical Tradition and civic design. We believe that tradition is unparalleled in its dignity, beauty, and harmony and not to mention its legibility to the common man. It is no accident that the Founding Fathers chose the classical style when designing the Nations Capital and its core buildings of government. The founders socked to harken back to rome and athens and they knew classical architecture was timehonored and timeless. The National Civic arts Society Works to continue and expand upon the vision of the founders for the federal design generally. I perhaps dont need to tell you that since the 1950s, washin
In depth. This is our Monthly Program with one author talking about his or her book w and we are pleased ts month to be joined by westmore who is the author of three books plus Childrens Book and the novel. His first book came out in 2010 called the other westmore and cthen his book the work came ot in 2015 and its most recent book is about baltimore during the arrest and death of freddie gray that just came out five days. It is called that but in your book, the work, you write that the militaryta saved your life. What don you mean by that . Guest i think the military played an incredible role in my life where some of the most important times in my life have not been when i was wearing a suit or a a tshirt and jeans bt when i was wearing a uniform from this country. I was first introduced in the military system about 13 years old and i was sent to military school and hand one mandatory year in military school. It was some issues and challenges and my mom was threatening to send me to m
That nobody really knew how it would turn out as far as viewership goes, is a little bit disappointing on night one. We will see what happens tonight with dr. Jill biden as the anchor of tonights program and see if we can attract more viewers. David do they have much of a hope of doing that . Michelle obama was a pretty big gun the first night. You would expect her to have the draw. Im not sure whats going to happen. Jeanne yeah, i think we have to be a little careful because so much of this is streaming. All of the numbers rick is right. Viewership is down on live tv. There is streaming. Students do not watch anything live. And afterwards. One of the things that last night did, they talked about the fact that trump is not in their view qualified to be president. I think the democrats really have to think about, they want to pull over these voters but they need to persuade in these swing states. They will have to do much more than just talk about how he is not just qualified and what j
That is unique and in this last hour, last night was about hearing normal peoples stories and tonight was heavy on previously elected reviews. We expect to hear about National Security from colin powell in the second hour and likely very emotional speech from doctor joe biden speaking about her husband. We will wrap up all of this and we want to get you right to that virtual rollcall. Workers are dying from covid 19 and a lot of us dont have paid sick leave work quality protective equipment. We are human beings and not disposable. We want to keep helping and we need a president who will have our back. Nebraska cast 33 votes for joe biden. Working people are the backbone of our economy and the key to our recovery. Joe biden knows it is not enough to praise, we need to reward them so lets raise the minimum wage to 15 an hour, empower workers to negotiate for more pay and better workplaces and make it easier to pay for healthcare and higher education. I am proud to cast 24 votes for Berni
