“Russia and Ukraine: History Behind the Headlines,” brings together three leading scholars to place current events in historical context. With each historian approaching the current conflict from a different perspective, attendees will learn about the deeply intertwined histories of Russia and Ukraine, as well as the Cold War and post-Cold War disputes that have led to the Russian invasion. This session will demonstrate not only the value, but indeed the necessity of thinking historically if we are to understand the worlds around us. This session is open to all, but might be particularly useful for teachers and their students at college and high school levels. This webinar is free to attend. Registration is required.
