Upcoming Programs in November at the 9/11 Memorial Museum
Upcoming Programs in November at the 9/11 Memorial Museum
Fall programs at the 9/11 Memorial Museum have been extremely well received thus far, with appearances from former British Prime Minister Tony Blair and former New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly. In November, the 9/11 Memorial Museum will host two programs, “The Heart of the Matter: ISIS Online” and “War of the Encyclopaedists.”
On November 4, the program “ISIS Online” hosts The Atlantic contributing editor Graeme Wood who wrote the widespread article, “What ISIS Really Wants,” and Princeton University scholar Cole Bunzel who will discuss how ISIS uses social media to instill fear and recruit supporters.
On November 17, poet Christopher Robinson and Army lawyer and veteran Gavin Kovite will discuss their debut novel set during the military occupation of Iraq, “War of the Encyclopaedists.” The discussion will examine the relationship between soldiers and civilians and a book signing will follow the program.
Program admission is free to museum visitors, but reservations are required prior to the event. Click here for more information and to reserve tickets.
