The Eleanor Roosevelt Val-Kill Partnership is honored to host the Tomorrow Is Now virtual conference series in partnership with the COV-AID project sponsored by the Open Society University Network and The Talloires Network. Members of Eleanor’s Circle, as well as students and faculty across the global networks, are invited to participate in the live Zoom sessions where speakers from around the world will reflect on the relevance of Eleanor’s legacy during the pandemic.

On June 2 the network will host the second Tomorrow Is Now conference with guest speaker Joel H. Rosenthal, president of the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs, as he explores Eleanor Roosevelt’s legacy in today’s global challenges.

Hosted by Manuela Roosevelt, Chair of the Eleanor Roosevelt Val-Kill Partnership, Tomorrow Is Now is the title of the last book authored by Eleanor Roosevelt.

Manuela Roosevelt is the chair of the Eleanor Roosevelt Val-Kill Partnership, a private nonprofit that works in tandem with the National Park Service for the enhancement of visitors' experience at the home of Eleanor Roosevelt, Val-Kill, in Hyde Park, in upstate New York. The organization funds educational programs, lectures, and has raised more than $2.5 million for NPS to assist in restoration projects at the site. She is the editorial director at Callaway Arts and Entertainment, a publisher and cross-platform media company in New York City. She lives with her family at Springwood, the estate where Franklin D Roosevelt was born that now belongs to the National Park Service.

Joel H. Rosenthal is president of the Carnegie Council for Ethics in International Affairs. He is also a faculty member in the Bard College Globalization and International Affairs program in New York City. As a scholar and teacher, Rosenthal has focused on ethics in US foreign policy, with special emphasis on issues of war and peace, human rights, and pluralism. He is the editor-in-chief of the Carnegie Council's flagship journal, Ethics & International Affairs, published by Cambridge University Press.

IWT July Weeklong Workshops

Monday, July 6, 2020
Website
9:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
The Bard Card College IWT July workshops offer teachers the opportunity to deepen their understanding of writing-based teaching and its application in the classroom. Together, teachers explore how to make these practices their own—how to reimagine writing prompts, work with new readings, and integrate collaborative learning into classrooms of all sizes.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, IWT will not be running the July Weeklong Workshops on Bard College campus this year. While we are disappointed not to be able to convene in person, we are pleased to announce that, for the first time, participants can attend our July Workshops online. Online workshops will run in an abbreviated form, from Monday July 6–Friday July 10, from 9am-12pm each day. Workshops will involve some asynchronous out-of-class reading and writing. IWT will also be offering online workshops scheduled specifically for international time zones.

On Tuesday evening, July 7, participants can tune in for a public reading by Samantha Hunt. Samantha Hunt’s collection of stories, The Dark Dark (FSG) was voted a Best Book of the Year by NPR, Vogue, The Huffington Post, and The Chicago Review of Books. She is the author of three novels, Mr. Splitfoot, The Invention of Everything Else, and The Seas. She is a recipient of the Bard Fiction Prize, the National Book Foundation’s 5 Under 35 award, and was a finalist for the Orange Prize and a Guggenheim Fellowship for fiction. She teaches at the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY.
