Lincoln’s Lessons: Knowledge. Law. War.
How do we apply Lincoln’s thoughts and actions to major challenges today?
How do you teach yourself with nothing but a barrel of books? Is it possible to save the rule of law by breaking the law? How can a war be waged without deeming the other side an enemy?
This interactive discussion explores the life and thought of Abraham Lincoln, especially the lessons key to navigating our own challenges in the 21st century: learning in an evolving world, reconciling opposing objectives, and addressing complex issues with simple nuance.
This class is presented in partnership with DC Public Library.
