SUMMARY:To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause
LOCATION:SIPA II 102
DESCRIPTION:Join the Green School for a book presentation and conversation
  featuring To the Success of Our Hopeless Cause: The Many Lives of the So
 viet Dissident Movement by Dr. Benjamin Nathans\, who will be joined by h
 istorians Carlos Eire and Rebecca Friedman.\n\nBeginning in the 1960s\, t
 he Soviet Union was challenged by a dissident movement that captured the 
 world’s imagination. Against all odds\, these courageous individuals unde
 rmined the fearsome Soviet system and helped hasten its collapse three de
 cades later. Taking its title from a toast offered at dissident gathering
 s\, Dr. Nathans’s book tells the story of a remarkable group of people wh
 ose moral courage helped change the world. Their activism inspired moveme
 nts in other totalitarian regimes\, including Castro’s Cuba. Despite the 
 island’s distance from the Soviet Union—geographically and culturally—the
  parallels between the Soviet and Cuban dissident movements are striking.
  This event explores a powerful story of hope and the enduring supremacy 
 of human dignity over tyranny.\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/e8cb4f74-af
