One of the longest-serving and most effective national security experts of his generation, Brett McGurk served as a top national security advisor under Presidents George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Donald Trump. He has been deeply involved in Middle East military strategy, diplomacy and U.S. policy, and is a distinguished lecturer at Stanford University.

McGurk shares his insider’s perspective on the current state of world affairs, the personalities who shape today’s headlines and their impact on industries such as energy, global financial markets and the U.S. economy. He provides insight on how to overcome deadlocks, make decisions under fire, and use negotiations for a successful conclusion – all skills that transcend from public to private and business sectors.

His experiences have led him to some of the world’s most volatile regions. Serving as Special Assistant to the President and Senior Director for Iraq and Afghanistan under President Bush, McGurk helped develop “The Surge”: a fundamental and successful shift in Iraq war strategy. Under President Obama, he served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Iraq and Iran, spearheading secret negotiations with Iran that led to the release of six American citizens from the notorious Evin prison. McGurk led sensitive negotiations with Russia on the Syria crisis and shuttled between global capitals to build coalitions and narrow differences between friends and adversaries.

As Special Presidential Envoy leading the Campaign to Defeat ISIS, McGurk helped build the coalition of 75 countries and four international organizations—the largest coalition in history—to confront ISIS. He led the campaign under Presidents Obama and Trump before resigning his position in December 2018 following Trump’s order to withdraw all U.S. forces from Syria.

President Bush described McGurk as part of a “band of brothers” inside the White House at a critical phase of the Iraq war. President Obama called him one of his “closest advisors” on the Middle East. Condoleezza Rice referred to him as the “consummate professional diplomat.” The New York Times cited him as “a doer” in high-stakes negotiations. He is a senior foreign affairs analyst with NBC News/MSNBC. McGurk is currently authoring a book entitled Three Presidents, Three Wars for publication by Crown in 2021.

Jennifer Granholm, the former two-term governor of Michigan, shares her vision of leadership during an economic crisis, and how we can overcome these same challenges in our own communities with hope and persistence. From her experience in dealing with economic upheaval and fierce partisan politics, Jennifer spells out how to lead during tough times through resilience, humor, and pragmatism.

\n\n

When it comes to leading in a crisis, Jennifer discusses how to take an idealistic, but practical approach for success. She advocates for economic partnerships, clean energy policy, and effective governance as the way to bring change to our own communities and local governments.

\n\n

Granholm understands tough times; she faced an uphill battle when she was elected as the first female governor of Michigan in 2002. The auto industry was in freefall; the state depended on the failing auto industry to supply jobs and much-needed tax revenues. Unemployment levels were rising, while the public sector was demoralized by budget cuts. But Jennifer believes in the power of hope in the face of tough times.

\n\n

\"Sometimes leadership is planting trees under whose shade you'll never sit. It may not happen fully till after I'm gone. But I know that the steps we're taking are the right steps.\"- Jennifer Granholm

\n\n

Granholm spells out how public-private partnerships can become a force for economic recovery. In her book, A Governor's Story: The Fight for Jobs and America's Economic Future, she describes how her efforts to work across the political aisle helped reframe the state’s economic future. She supported revamping the state’s economy and moving from automotive manufacturing to new sectors, such as alternative energy. Jennifer emphasized the importance of post-secondary education for Michiganders following the decline in Michigan manufacturing jobs, many of which did not require a college degree.

\n\n

Since serving as governor for two terms, Jennifer has become a leading light in the Democratic Party. As a CNN Senior Political Commentator, she appears frequently on programs across the network to weigh in on the political news of the day. Jennifer is a distinguished adjunct professor of law and public policy at the UC Berkeley Goldman School of Public Policy and UC Berkeley School of Law, where she once taught a graduate course entitled \"Governing in Tough Times.\"

Truth in Journalism: Reporting on Politics and Identity in America
In this presentation, Yamiche Alcindor looks at the current political issues facing America and shares her experiences reporting on international, national and local dynamics. She offers her observations on the White House and Washington politics, her thoughts on how social justice issues impacting the country’s future and her analysis of the latest stories surrounding elections. Alcindor also talks about how her decision to pursue journalism came at 16 years old when she learned the tragic truth about the 1955 murder of Emmett Till and the launch of the civil rights movement. She also discusses how economic and racial segregation have impacted America and how her own story—that of a young woman whose family immigrated to the U.S. from Haiti in the 1970s—has influenced how she covers the world as a journalist.
Black History and the Legacy of MLK: Purpose, Truth and Justice
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. said, “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in times of comfort and convenience, but where he stands in times of challenge and controversy.” Yamiche Alcindor believes the chaotic, tough, and difficult times align perfectly with the teachings of Dr. King. In this presentation, Alcindor urges her audience to find their purpose, do the work to seek truth and then press for justice. Alcindor also reflects on the importance for each of us to take the time to pause and consider the sense of urgency Dr. King embraced to forever change American society.

With more than four decades on the forefront of global politics and national security, and most recently serving as deputy national security advisor in the Trump administration, K.T. McFarland is uniquely qualified to discuss America’s current foreign policy opportunities, challenges, and threats.

Her experience as one of President Trump’s senior White House staff members, responsible for the initial formulation of many of his national security initiatives, gives her an insider’s perspective not just of this administration and its personalities and policies, but how Washington DC works…and doesn’t.

Prior to joining the Trump administration, Ms. McFarland was FOX News’ national security analyst. She appeared regularly on FOX News and FOX Business News, wrote a column for the FOX Opinions page, and hosted DEFCON3 for FOXNews.com. In addition to her work in the Trump administration, Ms. McFarland also held national security posts in the Nixon, Ford, and Reagan administrations, including as an aide to Dr. Henry Kissinger and as a speechwriter, spokesperson, and aide to Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger. In 1985, she received the Department of Defense's highest civilian award for her work in the Reagan administration.

K.T. McFarland was already one of the country’s most prominent foreign policy and national security experts before joining the Trump Administration. But her most recent experience in the White House and her role in formulating the Trump administration’s national security agenda makes her uniquely qualified to discuss the whole range of critical foreign policy and defense issues.

Her latest book, REVOLUTION: Trump Washington and “We the People”, McFarland explains the Trump Revolution and puts it into historical context. (February 2020)

McFarland is a captivating speaker and encourages the lively give and take of a Q&A period.

One of the most highly accomplished public figures in America today, Former Attorney General Loretta Lynch has been a leading progressive voice during her 30+ year highly distinguished career.

She is the first female African American Attorney General of the United States, appointed by President Barack Obama in 2015. She also served as the head of the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York twice, under both President Clinton and President Obama. Described by President Obama as “the only lawyer in America who battles mobsters, drug lords and terrorists, and still has the reputation for being a charming ‘people person,” she has been instrumental in shaping the direction of the nation on a number of tough issues. She improved the relationship between local law enforcement and the communities they serve, and she has taken bold stances on criminal justice reform.

Lynch has spent years in the trenches rising through the ranks as a prosecutor, aggressively fighting terrorism, financial fraud and cybercrime -- all while vigorously defending civil and human rights.

While leading the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York, she became known for the high-profile civil rights conviction of two Brooklyn police officers who brutally assaulted Haitian immigrant Abner Louima.

While in private practice, Lynch served as a volunteer legal advisor for the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, established to prosecute those responsible for human rights violations in the 1994 genocide in that nation.

Born in Greensboro, NC, the daughter of a school librarian and fourth generation Baptist minister, Lynch was also inspired by stories about her grandfather, a sharecropper in the 1930s, who helped members of his community who had no recourse under the Jim Crow system.

Captain Scott Kelly, a NASA astronaut, shares the remarkable story of his year in space – and how personal determination made the difference when meeting challenges on space missions and his personal life. He set the record for the total accumulated number of days spent in space, the single longest space mission by an American astronaut.

Scott recounts the challenges that he and his crew faced on his four missions to space, and what traits helped him overcome these obstacles. Resilience and courage, he affirms, helped him as a young boy who struggled in school to reach for the stars and fulfill his dreams to reach space.

With humor and an engineer’s eye for detail, he covers the extreme dangers in space: the isolation, physical impact on the body and pressures of living so closely in a small cabin, as well as facing the risk of space junk or catastrophic depressurization. No matter what kind of journey we are facing, Scott details how courage and preparation can mean the difference between life and death, or success and failure for a team.

Courage and preparation mean stepping out of comfort zones and venturing into new journeys. Courage points us to “choose to do the hard things,” while resilience allows us to meet the hard times head-on and ask, “What’s next?”

“If you were doing something safe, something you already knew could be done, you were wasting time.”

-\tScott Kelly, on the importance of courage

Scott relays stories from his rough and tumble childhood, and how he attained the rank of captain in the U.S. Navy. He flew over 8,000 hours in more than 40 aircraft and accomplished over 250 carrier landings throughout his career. He and his twin brother Mark were selected to become astronaut candidates in April 1996; the first relatives to be selected to become astronauts. After completing training, Scott was a crew member and also commanded NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations (NEEMO), a mission where groups of astronauts, engineers and scientists live in Aquarius underwater laboratory, the world's only undersea research station.

Scott commanded the International Space Station (ISS) on three expeditions and was a member of the year-long mission to the ISS. Scott was enrolled in a unique study that measured the impact of space travel on his body and compared it to his twin brother, who spent the same year on Earth. The study demonstrated long-lasting changes in the body, including alterations in DNA and cognition. Scott retired from NASA in 2016.

Also a successful author, Scott wrote the best-selling Endurance: A Year in Space, A Lifetime of Discovery and Infinite Wonder: An Astronaut's Photographs From a Year in Space, which is a collection of photos documenting his journey on the space station.

Tips on Living in Isolation from the Man Who Spent a Year in Space
Working from home. Self-isolation. Video conferencing. Social distancing. As the new normal brought on by the coronavirus takes hold in homes across the globe, Captain Scott Kelly offers expert advice on how to manage it all successfully. During his year in space aboard the International Space Station, Captain Kelly faced the ultimate isolation challenge—unable to go outside, ever. As he says in his New York Times op-ed, “When I went to sleep, I was at work. When I woke up, I was still at work.” In this virtual presentation, Kelly shares the seven strategies he followed in space to maintain a productive work schedule, to co-exist with his fellow astronauts, and to remain connected to family and friends.
The Sky Is Not The Limit: Lessons From A Year In Space
During his record-breaking Year In Space, U.S. astronaut Scott Kelly captivated the world while laying the groundwork for the future of space travel and exploration. And while science was at the core of Kelly’s groundbreaking expedition—it is his life lessons and personal stories from 229 miles above Earth and the path that led him there that provide such unique and valuable perspective on embracing risk and discovering one’s true potential to achieve the impossible. With a journey that exemplifies the power and resilience of the human spirit, from U.S. Navy fighter pilot to record-holding astronaut, Kelly reveals the choices and life events that paved his way. An American hero whose contribution to humanity is as far reaching as his epic story, Kelly reflects on his journey with his trademark candor, humor and humility. From the leadership and teamwork required in such demanding conditions, to the long-term deprivation from loved ones and Planet Earth itself, Kelly delivers a truly one-of-a-kind experience.
STEM TALK For Students
Record-breaking astronaut Scott Kelly discusses his educational experience as a struggling primary and secondary school student until he discovered his motivation by reading a book—Tom Wolfe’s The Right Stuff. It sparked in him an unstoppable drive to overcome his struggles and become a high-performing student who eventually ascended to the peaks of academic performance as an engineering student, a test pilot, and later as a NASA astronaut. Captain Kelly gives insight into his philosophy on education and tips for students to transform their own academic performance. He emphasizes the importance of STEM education and how it impacts our world for the better—from strengthening economies to improving our well-being. Kelly also describes the benefits of human spaceflight, highlighting the inspiration it delivers to future generations to further science, math, and technology in job fields across the globe.

Through personable and articulate storytelling, he shares his visionary ideas for harnessing the power of observation and creative problem solving, applicable to any organization or community. It’s all about taking responsibility while looking for opportunities to improve.

Derreck is the founder of the Global Soap Project: a humanitarian aid organization that collects discarded and unused soap from thousands of hotels worldwide, reprocesses it, then distributes it to in-need populations around the world. The project was born from his simple observation about how much soap is available in hotels, and how much is thrown away when hotel rooms are turned. This simple observation became an innovative idea that is now battling global health issues in 90 countries. Hygiene-related diseases, and the resulting deaths, have dissipated in many at-risk communities, thanks in part to Derreck’s creative problem solving.

His energy and enthusiasm are unmatched as he brings his stories and principles to life. Key factors of his personal and professional success are identified with the memorable acronym S.E.L.F.: Service, Education, Leadership and Faith. He calls upon his dynamic experiences to empower audiences, inspiring an entrepreneur spirit made possible only through creative problem solving. Derreck’s emotionally-packed presentations linger long after his speech, empowering audiences to invent their own self-made motto of success so they can create tangible change in the world.

Derreck’s passion for helping others and commitment to innovative thinking led him to the role of CEO of the National Center for Civil and Human Rights.

Renowned activist, civil rights leader, community organizer and 2018 Maryland gubernatorial candidate Benjamin Jealous outlines what it will take to secure true equality for all Americans and to empower the next generation to lead toward a better future.

During Jealous’ tenure, the NAACP became the largest door-to-door voter registration operation nationwide.

The Secret to Unleashing Inner Greatness
A Rhodes scholar and the youngest person ever to lead the NAACP, Ben Jealous is known for being one of the most effective civil rights leaders of our day. However, it was not always clear that he would follow this path. In this speech, Jealous tells the inside history of more than 50 years of great civil rights battles, both known and unknown. He offers insight both into what our nation's greatest change agents have in common, and shows how we can all dramatically increase our capacity to make the world a better place.
Brothers, Unlimited
From the street-level movement to end racial profiling, to the White House's \"My Brother’s Keeper\" initiative, there is a growing movement to ensure that young Black men and all young men of color have access to the American Dream. Drawing from stories of men he knows and admires, Ben Jealous reflects on the importance of treating young men of color as assets to our communities rather than liabilities, and lays out what it will take for our country to finally realize the dream of \"One Nation\" written into the Pledge of Allegiance.
The Forgotten Origins and Consequences of Race in America
Do you remember the details of how President McKinley was killed? Did you know that Georgetown University's first president was black? Most Americans don't. And yet our forgotten history of race continues to haunt us in ways big and small, and to shape the making of modern America. In this speech, Ben Jealous tells the story behind lessons learned and unlearned, and what we all need to internalize if we aim to create a country where children are judged by the content of their character, not the color of their skin.

An award-winning journalist and one of the most recognized voices in radio, Michele Norris engages audiences in candid discussion about race, culture and communication in America.

From the radio airwaves of NPR and primetime television to leading news publications such as The Washington Post, Norris is one of the most trusted voices in American journalism. On stage, she inspires open and honest dialogue, with memorable stories and fascinating perspectives drawn from her personal journey, investigative research, and interviews with world leaders, Nobel Laureates and influential newsmakers.

For a decade, as host of National Public Radio’s longest-running program, All Things Considered, she captivated audiences nationwide while earning some of journalism’s highest honors. As a Washington Post Opinions contributor, Norris sparks important dialogue on current events, social issues and the power to make change as she breaks down commonly held beliefs and attitudes on race, diversity and bias. She makes complex and taboo issues remarkably accessible. Her audiences walk away empowered to stimulate discussion around challenging topics within their communities.

Throughout Norris’ accomplished career, her efforts to promote conversation about race have resulted in her critically acclaimed book, The Grace of Silence: A Memoir. She received accolades for a Peabody Award-winning initiative, “The Race Card Project,” which fosters conversation among individuals about their differences. Norris was previously the director of “The Bridge”—the Aspen Institute's program on race, cultural identity and inclusion—which addresses some of America's most complex issues by encouraging people to explore and engage with differing perspectives.

The Race Card Project - Eavesdropping on America's Conversation on Race
Join us for a discussion on race and identity in America, with Peabody Award-winning journalist Michele Norris, founder of The Race Card Project™. The Race Card Project creates sturdy cultural bridges through candid conversation using real stories on race, culture and identity. In 2010, former NPR journalist Michele Norris began inviting people to distill their thoughts on the word race to only six words. Since then, The Race Card Project™ has collected more than 500,000 “postcards” from all 50 states and 96 countries. People often send backstories and photos to share more about what is behind their six-word statements. Many of these essays contain sentiments and hard truths rarely expressed out loud. Today, these powerful six-word memoirs kickstart honest conversations that leave people with a better sense of each other, and themselves, through a variety of tools and resources. The goal is to tap into the stories, people and threads that make up our complex cultural landscape and then engage people to talk across difference, race, inclusion and identity.
The Grace of Silence and the Power of Words
Award-winning journalist Michele Norris's 2010 book The Grace of Silence started out as a quest to uncover how America talked about race in the wake of the Obama presidential election. What resulted was what Norris calls an \"accidental memoir.\" Named one of the year's best books by The Christian Science Monitor, the book became an eye-opening family history lesson revealing her own family's racial legacy and the larger conversation surrounding race in America. The book has also led to the spinoff blog \"The Race Card Project\" and a deeper look at our attitudes and beliefs about race.
If You Meant It Then You Should Have Put a Stamp On It
In this unique presentation, Michele Norris examines how old fashioned handwritten letters have helped define what is best about America, and explores how we hold on to that in the age of email, Twitter, Facebook and Tumblr. This refreshing talk looks at the profound impact and importance of letters written by presidents, CEOs, sportsmen, soldiers, pioneer women and pioneering scientists -- and examines how we communicate today and what it may tell us about our tomorrow.
