SUMMARY:Bring Your Own Chair
DESCRIPTION:“If they don’t give you a seat at the table\, bring a folding chair.”\n-Shirley Chisholm \nThe Bring Your Own Chair project is inspired by Congresswoman Shirley Chisholm’s words and lifetime of work to promote a more inclusive democracy. Chisholm was the first black woman elected to Congress in 1968 and the first black candidate to run for the presidential nomination of a majority party. Chisholm was a force for change and a champion of legislation that would improve the quality of life for women\, children\, people of color\, and the poor. \nWhat matters to you? What do you bring to the table? \nDesign a chair for the installation celebrating our democracy’s diverse perspectives. An activity for all ages. \nThis interactive installation was created in partnership with the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the U.S. Senate.

SUMMARY:Pre-World War I French Military Doctrine and its Consequences
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Pre-World War I French Military Doctrine and its Consequences\nRichard Faulkner\nOctober 7\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nIn the years prior to World War I\, the French military wrestled with how to defend itself against a larger\, more industrialized foe. Like the Great War’s other major combatants\, the French pre-war doctrine proved to be ill-suited to meet the realities of the 1914 battlefield. This lecture will examine the factors that influenced the French Army’s pre-war doctrine\, how the army envisioned fighting “the next great war\,” and how it adapted its tactical strategy from 1915 to 1918\, after its peacetime doctrine failed to secure France’s hope for victory in 1914. \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series is an annual roster of lectures focusing on significant historical events\, usually with an emphasis on military history. Each lecture is presented by faculty from the United States Army Command and General Staff College in Ft. Leavenworth\, Kansas. Established by General William Tecumseh Sherman in 1881\, the CGSC is the graduate college for U.S. Army and sister service officers. The esteemed faculty and guests of the CGSC provide unique and captivating insights into the history of military conflict from the ancient to the modern ages at the Dole Institute of Politics. \nThe Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan\, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming\, congressional archive and museum\, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole.

SUMMARY:A Conversation on Race Part IV: The Extraordinary Life of Cyclist Major Taylor\, America’s First Black Sports Hero
DESCRIPTION:Investigative political reporter and author Michael Kranish will join us for our fourth installment of our A Conversation on Race series. He will discuss the life\, tribulations\, and career of Major Taylor\, the first American-born Black world champion in any sport\, fifty years before Jackie Robinson became a Major League baseball player. Kranish spent years collecting thousands of articles written about Taylor for his book\, “The World’s Fastest Man: The Extraordinary Life of Cyclist Major Taylor\, America’s First Black Sports Hero\,” in which he tells the story of how Taylor overcame insurmountable odds to become a world-class athlete during the Jim Crow era. Taylor’s trailblazing accomplishments had widespread impact across society and are relevant to conversations we are having about African American athletes today. \nThis program includes a book sale and signing with the author.

SUMMARY:Vo Nguyen Giap and Le Duan: Vietnam’s Victors
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Vo Nguyen Giap and Le Duan: Vietnam’s Victors\nMartin Clemis\nNovember 4\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nBetween 1945 and 1975\, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam fought and won two major conflicts against tremendous odds: one against France and the other against the U.S. and its South Vietnamese ally. The architects of these incredible victories were General Vo Nguyen Giap\, the commander of the North Vietnamese Army\, and Le Duan\, the General Secretary of the Vietnam Worker’s Party. Although they both utilized a hybrid politico-military approach that synthesized conventional war\, guerrilla warfare\, and mass politics\, they each pursued a unique variation of communist revolutionary warfare. In this lecture\, Clemis will discuss how these men and their theories of war carried the communists to victory in Vietnam\, and in doing so\, brought the most far reaching and consequential conflict of the Cold War to a conclusion. \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series is an annual roster of lectures focusing on significant historical events\, usually with an emphasis on military history. Each lecture is presented by faculty from the United States Army Command and General Staff College in Ft. Leavenworth\, Kansas.

SUMMARY:THE COUNSELORS | Resolved: Cash bail will not be required for individuals who are not a flight risk or dangerous
DESCRIPTION:On Nov. 17\, the Dole Institute of Politics will debut The Counselors\, an engaging series featuring two advocates arguing either side of an important national issue. In a cross between a courtroom trial and a debate\, the two counselors will present their opposing arguments and call two expert witnesses each to help build their case. \nFocusing on criminal justice reform\, the theme for our November program is “Resolved: Cash bail will not be required for individuals who are not a flight risk or dangerous.” \nThe counselors for “Resolved” will be Edward C. Duckers\, partner at Stoel Rives LLP and head of the firm’s Litigation Practice\, and Pedro L. Irigonegaray\, attorney and partner at Irigonegaray\, Turney\, & Revenaugh. \nToday in the United States\, six out of every 10 people in jail are currently awaiting trial without having actually been convicted of a crime. In 2018\, the bipartisan FIRST STEP Act was signed into law\, creating legislation that would improve fairness in sentencing of federal crimes\, reduce recidivism and promote public safety. \nAt a time when a range of experts are calling for additional criminal justice reform\, The Counselors fall program aims to educate on both sides of the argument. \nJoin us 6-8 p.m. on Wednesday\, Nov. 17\, for the inaugural event followed by an open house reception. \nThe Counselors series is consistent with the mission of the Dole Institute of Politics – to promote political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bi-partisan\, balanced manner – and is made possible through a grant from the Koch Family Foundation. \nThis program is cosponsored by KU Debate and the University of Kansas School of Law.

SUMMARY:Kennan and Nitze: Early Cold War Theorists
DESCRIPTION:Ft. Leavenworth: Kennan and Nitze: Early Cold War Theorists\nGates Brown and Dave Mills\nDecember 2\, 2021 | 3 p.m. \nBrown and Mills will discuss two of the most influential Cold War theoriest: George Kennan and Paul Nitze\, who were exact opposites in strategy and outlook. Kennan was a realist who believed the U.S. should eliminate its arsenal of nuclear weapons. His guiding philosophy was that an individual or a nation that desired peace should act peacefully\, although his opinions on dealing with the U.S.S.R. ironically led to the most aggressive foreign policy in American history. Nitze was a hawk who advocated a more assertive role in foreign affairs\, believing that if a nation desired peace\, it should prepare for war. More than any other American\, Nitze was responsible for the arms race between the two superpowers throughout the Cold War. \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series \nThe Ft. Leavenworth Series is an annual roster of lectures focusing on significant historical events\, usually with an emphasis on military history. Each lecture is presented by faculty from the United States Army Command and General Staff College in Ft. Leavenworth\, Kansas. Established by General William Tecumseh Sherman in 1881\, the CGSC is the graduate college for U.S. Army and sister service officers. The esteemed faculty and guests of the CGSC provide unique and captivating insights into the history of military conflict from the ancient to the modern ages at the Dole Institute of Politics. \nThe Robert J. Dole Institute of Politics is dedicated to promoting political and civic participation as well as civil discourse in a bipartisan\, philosophically balanced manner. It is located on KU’s West Campus and houses the Dole Archive and Special Collections. Through its robust public programming\, congressional archive and museum\, the Dole Institute strives to celebrate public service and the legacies of U.S. Senators Bob Dole and Elizabeth Dole.

DESCRIPTION:“Defending New York City in the Early Republic”\nRich Barbuto\nThursday\, March 3\, 2022 | 3 p.m.\nDuring the American Revolution\, New York City was occupied by the British. Thereafter\, the city soon became the largest port of the new republic. Threatened again as tensions with Britain reached a fevered pitch\, federal\, state\, and local authorities moved quickly to build fortifications and mobilize the citizenry to guard land and sea approaches. In 1814\, believing the city too strong to assault\, the British chose instead to attack Washington\, D.C. and Baltimore. \nRich Barbuto served as an armor officer for twenty-three years. He earned a Ph.D. from KU and was the deputy director of the Department of Military History for twelve years. Rich has written several books on the War of 1812 and is a frequent speaker at conferences and public venues.

SUMMARY:Exhibit: What Would a Woman Offer Her Country? Elizabeth Dole's Ground-breaking\, Trail-blazing Life of Service
DESCRIPTION:Exhibit: What Would a Woman Offer Her Country? Elizabeth Dole’s Ground-breaking\, Trail-blazing Life of Service\nOpening March 18\, 2022\nAfter several decades of leadership at the highest levels of U.S. government\, Elizabeth Dole asked and answered this pointed question in a 1999 speech she delivered while she contemplated a run for the U.S.presidency. The following year\, she became the first viable woman candidate from a major political party to seek our nation’s highest office. As one of just 24 women in her 1965 Harvard Law School class of 550\, Senator Dole went on to serve five U.S. presidents and became the first woman to serve in two different positions in two presidential cabinets. She was the first woman head of the American Red Cross since founder Clara Barton in 1881\, and later was elected the first woman U.S. Senator from North Carolina. In 2012\, she established the Elizabeth Dole Foundation to adress military families’ urgent support needs. It has since become the country’s preeminent organization that empowers\, supports\, and honors military and veteran caregivers. Aside from these historic firsts\, what has Senator Elizabeth Dole offered her county? This exhibit\, featuring items from her historical collections which she donated to the Dole Institute in 2017\, chronicles over six decades of people-focused leadership and policy making – all while breaking barriers and blazing trails for other women to follow in her footsteps.

SUMMARY:Fort Leavenworth: Ethan Rafuse: “Hybrid War in the Shenandoah in 1864”
DESCRIPTION:Defense analysts have identified the emergence of “hybrid warfare” as a compelling threat to American national security and declared it one of the more notable developments of the first decade of the 21st century. Of course\, while the label may be new\, hybrid warfare is not new in the human experience. This talk will discuss Union operations in the Shenandoah Valley in 1864\, using it as a case study of a specific campaign in the Civil War where both conventional and unconventional operations were significant factors. It examines Sheridan’s efforts\, the particular dynamics and challenges he confronted\, and the factors that enabled him to prevail. \n

SUMMARY:Exhibit: Missing\, Then Action: An Army Wife Speaks out
DESCRIPTION:In June 1965\, Kansan Kathleen Johnson received word that her husband\, U.S. Army Major Bruce Johnson was missing. \nFor four years\, she waited—then\, she sought answers for her three young children. This is her story of love\, loss\, waiting – and action. \nKathleen Johnson of Salina\, Kansas was a founding member of the National League of Families of Prisoners and Missing in Southeast Asia. These brave military wives from across the country spoke out\, against government policy\, to seek recognition\, answers\, and accounting for their prisoner of war (POW) and missing in action (MIA) husbands during Vietnam. Some national leaders\, including Senator Bob Dole\, became fervent advocates for them in the halls of the U.S. government. \nThis special exhibit is made possible by ITC Great Plains. \n
