Dr. Erica R. Edwards's The Other Side of Terror: Black Women and the Culture of US Empire (New York University, 2021) reveals the troubling intimacy between Black women and the making of US global power.  The year 1968 marked both the height of the worldwide Black liberation struggle and a turning point for the global reach of American power, which was built on the counterinsurgency honed on Black and other oppressed populations at home. The next five decades saw the consolidation of the culture of the American empire through what Erica R. Edwards calls the “imperial grammars of blackness.” This is a story of state power at its most devious and most absurd, and, at the same time, a literary history of Black feminist radicalism at its most trenchant. Edwards reveals how the long war on terror, beginning with the late–Cold War campaign against organizations like the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense and the Black Liberation Army, has relied on the labor and the fantasies of Black women to justify the imperial spread of capitalism. Black feminist writers not only understood that this would demand a shift in racial gendered power, but crafted ways of surviving it. The Other Side of Terror offers an interdisciplinary Black feminist analysis of militarism, security, policing, diversity, representation, intersectionality, and resistance, while discussing a wide array of literary and cultural texts, from the unpublished work of Black radical feminist June Jordan to the memoirs of Condoleezza Rice to the television series Scandal. With clear, moving prose, Edwards chronicles Black feminist organizing and writing on “the other side of terror”, which tracked changes in racial power, transformed African American literature and Black studies, and predicted the crises of our current era with unsettling accuracy. Brittney Edmonds is an Assistant Professor of Afro-American Studies at UW-Madison. I specialize in 20th and 21st century African American Literature and Culture with a special interest in Black Humor Studies. Read more about my work at brittneymichelledmonds.com.

Bush administration, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice de-listed North Korea from the State Sponsor of Terrorism list, even though Pyongyang was, according to the Congressional Research Service, in deep with the Tamil Tigers and Hezbollah. Rice succumbed to a common second term pattern and threw a Hail Mary pass to change Bush's foreign policy legacy, but like many desperate last minute moves, hers ended in failure."  —Michael Rubin Millennial South Korea pushes back at Kim shake-downs. @JoshRogin https://www.janes.com/defence-news/news-detail/north-korea-promotes-new-five-year-military-plan-amid-heightening-tensions-with-seoul

See the full interview at http://usefulidiots.substack.com “The charade of statesmanship played out by George W. Bush and his enabler, Condoleezza Rice, as they wander the Middle East is a fitting end to seven years of misrule, stripped of power and transformed from monsters into buffoons. One half expects to see him stand up at the next president's inauguration and screech ‘I'm melting! I'm melting!' as he sinks into a puddle of slime.” This was penned by friend-of-show and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Chris Hedges back in 2008. And at the time, it seemed to reflect the opinion of George W. Bush among Leftists and Liberals. But now, he's back. Liberals who used to condemn him now love him! He hangs out with Obama, he gives speeches denouncing Trump, he paints! Now that's a thoughtful and cultured war criminal with whom we'd like to grab a Sauvignon blanc. In addition to blasting the grotesque rehabilitation of Dubya, Hedges shares his experience of 9/11 which he witnessed in New York City where he happened to be for a meeting with his then-employer The New York Times. He recalls those who jumped from the buildings who were edited out because “that mass suicide just didn't fit the narrative that both the media and the ruling elites were propelling.” When we asked him if 9/11 surprised him after years of serving and reporting in the Middle East, watching US bombs fall on cities, he responded, “That is how we communicate with the rest of the world. Huge explosions and death above a city skyline. That's how we have communicated for decades. And the hijackers learned to communicate back to us in the language we taught them. So when I saw the devastation, it was familiar. That was of course lost on most of the public who drank deep from that very dark elixir of nationalism.” Plus, the new Useful Idiots Wigged Moose Party announces a plan to ride in an armored pangolin and shoot Covid pellets at the Pharma companies refusing to share the vaccine. Maybe you have to see it to get it. It's all this, and more (including a #JacoOfTheWeek), on this week's episode of Useful Idiots. Check it out.

RUSH: I'm really happy to introduce to you Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, who joins us from Washington. The last time I spoke to you, Madam Secretary, was during the 2000 presidential campaign, so it's long overdue, but welcome to the program here. SECRETARY OF STATE RICE: Well, it's great to be with you, Rush. I can't believe it's been that long. RUSH: Time flies when you're having a good, good time. SECRETARY OF STATE RICE: (Laughs.) It does. It does. RUSH: Look, I want to get straight to this because I know your time is limited. The press conference today the president had about the congressional legislation he wants, 45 Democrats opposed — I'm not trying to draw you into political questions here, rest assured — you've got the three Republicans here, McCain and Warner and Lindsey Graham joining the Democrats opposing this. Secretary Powell wrote Senator McCain a letter that McCain has publicized. You have responded in a letter to Senator Warner. What did you say? SECRETARY OF STATE RICE: Well, in fact I sent the letter before I had seen Secretary Powell's letter. My letter simply stated the Department of State's position, which is that the interpretation of a US treaty obligation through US law is something that we do frequently and all the time. We're not trying to change what's called Common Article 3. We're not trying to weaken it. We just want our professionals to have clarity so that they know what is legal and what is not, and I have absolutely no problem defending what the president has asked the Congress to do when I go internationally. I think it only makes sense that you would not leave a very unclear standard like that of Common Article 3, which talks about “outrages on human dignity,” for instance, Rush. You don't want to leave that to unaccountable prosecutors, for instance, internationally. You want US law to define that. https://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2006/09/15/rush_interviews_secretary_of_state_condoleezza_rice/ Learn more about your ad-choices at https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com

Retired Marine Lt. Colonel Robert Darling joins Tim to tell his story of what it was like in the White House bunker on 9/11, where the vice president and other administration officials gathered intel and made decisions minute by minute. Some of those decisions were not only life and death, but historically, never had to be made before. Robert gives an insider's story on how the nation's leadership responded to the most severe attack on America's homeland since the Civil War.  This episode is part of our special series, "9/11: A Generation Removed." https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/shapingopinion/Inside_the_White_House_Bunker_at_20.mp3 As much as has been reported over the years about what happened on September 11th, 2001, outside of some of the leaders involved, you rarely get the chance to hear the story from an insider – someone who was both a participant and a witness to history, in that context. That's what you get when you hear the story of now retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel Robert J. Darling. Bob was a military liaison officer to the President. He was primarily responsible for planning air travel logistics for the President, the Vice President and the First Family. He was a pilot of Marine One, the helicopter that carries the President. He was a combat-hardened former Marine Cobra helicopter pilot. On September 11th, he found himself in direct support to Vice President Dick Cheney, the National Security Advisor, Dr. Condoleezza Rice, and others in the administration and in the nation's leadership apparatus. He was a critical communications link between those in the White House bunker and the chain of command outside of the bunker in national security, at the Pentagon, transportation, the Federal Aviation Administration, world leaders and others. When the terrorist attacks happened, the President was in Florida. The vice president was on site in the White House, along with other senior members of the administration. In the years before September 11th, much prepared him for what he'd see, what he'd hear and what he would have to do on that day. But as we find out, everyone who was with him in the White House bunker that day brought with them their own special histories and experiences that uniquely prepared them for the roles each would play, to make decisions that would affect the safety of millions and influence the future of the country they served. Links Robert J. Darling (website) 24 Hours Inside the White House Bunker, by Robert J. Darling (Barnes & Noble) Inside the White House Bunker on 9/11, West Point Center for Oral History About 9/11: A Generation Removed On September 11, 2021, America will mark the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the country that happened on September 11, 2001. In remembrance of the event, the Shaping Opinion podcast will release a series of nine distinct episodes centered on the 9/11 attacks, starting on Friday, September 3rd and culminating on the 20th Anniversary, September 11, 2021.  The series, entitled, “9/11: A Generation Removed,” will feature six new and original episodes for 2021, and three encore episodes, all based on the personal experiences of guests and stories of people who were there in New York, in Washington, D.C., and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. About this Episode's Guest Robert J. Darling Lieutenant Colonel Robert J. Darling retired from the United States Marine Corps with just over twenty years of active duty service in October 2007. He flew Cobra attack helicopters in Desert Shield and Desert Storm during the first Gulf War and in Somalia, Africa in support of Operation Restore Hope. In June 1998, he was selected to fly as a presidential pilot with Marine Helicopter Squadron One and in October 2000, he was selected to work for The White House Military Office, Airlift Operations Department. It was in that capacity that, then Major Darling supported the President,

This week is the 20th anniversary of the September 11th attacks. 20 years ago, 19 Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked 4 airliners, three of which hit their targets: Tower 1 and Tower 2 of the World Trade Center as well as the Pentagon. It resulted in 2,997 deaths and 25,000 injuries - altering forever, the fabric of American life.  The following day, in an address to the nation, President George W. Bush declared war on the terrorists who committed these acts. Closely involved with the decisions and operations to come, was National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice, who joins us today to discuss the anniversary and the latest developments we've witnessed the past few weeks in Afghanistan and her own personal experience with the tragic day that we, as a nation, will never forget.

We wrap the season with Dr. Condoleeza Rice Dr. Rice is among the most distinguished diplomats, political scientists and professors alive today. Born in the 1950's in Birmingham, Alabama. Dr. Rice shares with us her upbringing under two extraordinary parents, how an intense focus on figure skating snapped her out of being a procrastinator, how the great classical musical composers taught her sublime melodies through the piano, but it was a long winded Protestant preacher who taught her how to improvise the notes when playing. We speak about her wide ranging career in service of multiple U.S. Presidents, and alongside many famous foreign heads of state. She shares with us how she trained her mind to be a decision maker amidst complex circumstances, and she values most in leaders. We even touch on what new kinds of National Service could look like for the next generation of Americans. ** This episode is sponsored by Bixby Coffee Roasters. Hosted by Miles Fisher **

‘Aardverschuiving' is het derde boek van Michael Wolff over president Donald Trump. Op de dag dat het in Nederlandse vertaling uitkomt praat hij erover in Betrouwbare Bronnen.Sinds zijn vertrek uit het witte Huis houdt Trump hof in Mar-a-Lago - een ‘country club' voor klanten, aanhangers en vrienden. Tot zijn stomme verbazing werd Michael Wolff daar uitgenodigd voor een interview en een diner. Aan Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger vertelt hij in detail hoe dit bezoek verliep. Een belevenis op zich.Na afloop was Wolff doodmoe. In de omgeving van Trump verkeren is als Alice in Wonderland. Niets is wat het is. Zijn boek gaat dan ook over iets dat er niet is: de ‘aardverschuiving' van kiezers die Trump naar eigen waarneming een tweede termijn in het Witte Huis gunde. Want wat is er nu eigenlijk gebeurd? Wat was de realiteit van die verkiezingsnacht en van de weken daarna? Met als hoogte- en dieptepunt de overval op het Capitool op 6 januari door een ‘ongewassen bende', zoals Trump zelf die aanhangers noemt.Wolff wilde het eigenlijk bij twee boeken over Trump laten. Toen hij zag wat er op 6 januari allemaal gebeurde, ging hij toch weer aan het werk. In ‘Aardverschuiving' vindt de lezer een verslag van een bijna radeloze poging te begrijpen waar het Trump-tijdperk in eindigde en hoe hijzelf en zijn omgeving zich lieten zien en lieten kennen. Wolff vertelt hoe de president zo zeker was van zijn overwinning dat hij er in de campagne bewust voor koos Joe Biden niet aan te vallen. Hij vreesde dat de Democraten dan op de valreep een andere kandidaat zouden nemen met Michelle Obama als kandidaat-vicepresident.Het was Trump nooit te doen om de Republikeinse partij. Hij is nooit een Republican geweest en ook – tot afschuw van Rupert Murdoch, de eigenaar van Fox News, het belangrijkste tv-kanaal voor Trumpvolgers – geen ‘conservatief'. Van klassieke Republikeinse waarden zoals die belichaamd werden door mensen als George Bush sr, Condoleezza Rice en James Baker wil Trump niets weten. Wolff vertelt in welke vulgaire en haatdragende bewoordingen hij zich uitlaat over de Republikeinse leider in de Senaat, Mitch McConnell.Eigenlijk is de president in zijn vier jaar in het Witte Huis blijven doen wat hij altijd al deed. Hij maakte van alles een televisiespektakel - het enige waar hij echt goed in is en waarvan hij de waarden, normen en vereisten accepteert. Wolff ziet Trumps aanhangers, 'the base', niet als politieke geestverwanten, maar als fans die hem adoreren, zoals mensen dat ook doen met filmsterren.Van zijn ambt begreep Trump ten diepste heel weinig. Dat blijkt al uit het verhaal dat Wolff onthult over zijn relaties met de voormalige premier van Israël Netanyahu. Toen die Biden feliciteerde met de overwinning had ‘Bibi' afgedaan: hij was een vuige verrader. Ook geloofde Trump wat zijn staf hem op de mouw spelde over Macron en Merkel. Die zouden hem steunen in zijn verzet tegen de verkiezingsuitslag. En voormalig New York burgemeester Rudy Giulliani zou hem helpen alsnog in het Witte Huis te blijven (al waarschuwde Trumps schoonzoon Jared Kushner iedereen die man nooit ‘de sleutels' te geven).De kunst was - en is nog steeds, merkte Wolff in Mar-a-Lago - om bij Trump in het gevlei te komen door hem te vertellen wat-ie wil horen. Was Wolff bij zijn eerste boek volgens communicatiedirecteur Sarah Huckabee Sanders nog ‘vijand nummer 1', nu werd hij tot zijn verbijstering als ‘Amerika's grootste journalist' in het zonnetje gezet. Het diner waarbij ook de raadselachtige first lady Melania Trump aanzat was enerverend.In een eerder gesprek - in Betrouwbare Bronnen 44 – vertelde Wolff dat Trump een beetje bang was voor Karen Pence, de vrouw van vicepresident Mike Pence. Wolff beaamt dat zij eigenlijk de winnaar is van 6 januari. Want haar echtgenoot bezweek niet voor Trumps niet-aflatende druk om de verkiezing van Joe Biden als 46ste president van de Verenigde Staten nietig te verklaren.***Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door donaties van luisteraars via de site Vriend van de Show.

Any good show host knows that, to conduct a great interview, your number one priority needs to be the guest and the audience, not yourself. On today's episode of the Influential Personal Brand podcast, we get together with consummate interviewer, Ken Coleman, host of The Ken Coleman Show, to talk about the interviews he's conducted with highly accomplished individuals like George W. Bush and Condoleezza Rice, as well as the skills and lessons he's learned from taking almost 5,000 live calls live on air. In this conversation, we discuss his show's philosophy that every individual has a unique purpose in how they contribute to society and the profound impact this belief has had on his work. We hear from Ken about how he gets to the heart of his callers' problems in the short span of six minutes while still being entertaining and engaging to his audience, why he is not intimidated by the accomplished figures he has interviewed, and why intense preparation leads to reflexive performance. He also explains some of the key questions interviewers need to ask themselves while preparing and why thorough research is so important. Join us today for an informative episode full of wisdom and practical tips on the art of interviewing!

This week, A'ndre and Ryan speak with Anja Manuel, former diplomat and advisor on emerging markets, about the rise of India and China in a conversation largely based on her critically acclaimed 2016 book, This Brave New World: India, China, and the United States. Anja contextualizes the conversation by discussing how India and China's 'glorious distant past' coupled with a more recent history of foreign exploitation has shaped each country's self-perception in the 21st century. Anja provides an updated assessment on whether an optimistic path for cooperation between the United States and China exists, and whether the U.S. is underestimating India. We then dig into the key challenges facing each country, while providing a template for how and why the U.S. might want to involve itself in issues such as income disparities, corruption, demographic shifts, climate change, and anti-democratic trends. Anja also talks China's Belt and Road Initiative and whether India has a comprehensive global economic strategy. We conclude the wide-ranging conversation with a key question: does the international order and the global rules have to be changed to accommodate India and China's rise?Anja currently serves as a principal of Rice, Hadley, Gates & Manuel LLC, a strategic consulting firm that helps US companies navigate international markets, which she co-founded with former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, former National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley and former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates.

This week, Dana sits down with former U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Secretary Rice discusses how her father influenced her life and shaped her into the powerful woman she is today and how his guidance helped her during some of the most stressful moments of her career.  Keep up with Dana on Twitter: @DanaPerino

M&R were not impressed with Vice President Kamala Harris' trip to Guatemala, but those that are paying attention wouldn't have been. Lester Holt did his best journalist impersonation while speaking to Harris, and he held her feet to the fire when she claimed they had already been to the border. Condoleezza Rice offers her wisdom when it comes to global affairs, and she talks about the global threat of China. The media have been stepping on rakes a lot lately, especially when more liberals are speaking about the viability of the Wuhan lab leak theory. Peter Doocy from Fox News is not towing the media line, and did a great job in journalism with Vice President Harris on her trip. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez had Tweeted concern for her Puerto Rican grandmother, but rejected over $100K raised by GoFundMe, because it was collected through conservative philanthropy. Republicans have been demonized for asking about the Vice President's lack of attention to the border crisis, and Jen Psaki embarrasses herself trying to defend Harris' incompetence. CNN is referring to the “perplexity” of the media after the poor border performance, and stories are coming out about bodies of immigrants floating in the Rio Grande.

On this week's "Face the Nation," Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice discusses U.S. vulnerability to cyber attacks and the future of the GOP in the post-Trump era. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg talks about the progress of infrastructure negotiations -- will Democrats and Republicans be able to achieve consensus? Former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb has analysis on the newly revealed emails from Dr. Anthony Fauci -- what do they tell us about the U.S. response to COVID-19 and the "Wuhan lab leak" theory? Bank of America Chairman & CEO Brian Moynihan joins us to discuss the latest jobs report and America's road to recovery. West Virginia Democrat Senator Joe Manchin joins us to discuss progress on bipartisan negotiations on infrastructure and voting rights. Ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris' first trip abroad to Guatemala, President Alejandro Giammattei tells Ed O'Keefe that mass migration from Central America is a result of "nothing being done for dozens of years."

“Men who are in the golf business need to step up and recognize that women golfers are here."https://golfyeah.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/donnaoncourse-.jpg () Donna Hoffman Founder & President, Women on Course Oakton, Virginia   Back in 2012, Augusta National Golf Club -- long revered in the golfing world as the Sistine Chapel of the sport -- announced with great pride (a “joyous occasion,” according to former Augusta Chairman Billy Payne) that the Club had invited bureaucrat Condoleezza Rice and financier Darla Moore to join the club as its first female members. But the sad truth is that women had nothing to cheer about this “joyous occasion” at Augusta. That publicity stunt a decade ago did not represent any meaningful change in the club's policy of exclusion. It simply provided Augusta National with convenient and high-profile validation that the Club would continue to exercise its right to do whatever it wants…whenever it wanted to. Today, in 2021, there are only 6 females in Augusta's roster of approximately 300 members. So much for gender equality. But this podcast is not intended to be a rant against a private club's sexist membership policy. I mention Augusta National for two reasons: First, Augusta reflects, in many ways, the challenges that women face in exploring any interest they may have in playing the game, and in being accepted as bona fide members of the golfing community…both on the professional and amateur levels. Secondly, It provides a convenient introduction to an individual who, unlike Augusta National, is actually doing something tangible and meaningful…both for women and for the game of golf. Donna Hoffman is a CPA and a self-proclaimed former golf widow who, over the past 16 years, has built one of the most successful national networks of women who are provided opportunities to enjoy the game of golf their own terms. By demystifying the game, Donna has removed the intimidation factor, and empowered women to become comfortable and confident in a golf setting. Donna Hoffman is founder of “Women on Course,” which has redefined the sport to encompass business networking, travel, socialization and personal style. Each year, Women on Course hosts around 800 local golf, social and networking events across the country for its 20,000 members. They also provide custom golf events and programs for organizations seeking to develop their female leaders. In addition to running her organization, Donna speaks to Fortune 500 companies on the value of golf as a confidence builder – as well as a business development tool – while providing beginners a fun and easy on-ramp to be part of the conversation. Show Highlights: Highlights of Donna's' journey: from CPA, to owner of video production company, to founder of Women on Course. The origins of Women on Course; how and why Donna started the organization; its original visions and how it's changed over the years. The scope of activities and geography that Women on Course.https://golfyeah.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/donnacabo1.jpg () The differences between how man and women approach the game of golf. The best and worst ways for women to get started playing golf. The misunderstandings and fears that women have that keeps them from learning how to play golf. Types of courses that are most “women friendly.” Validation that the golfing world still has its share of male Neanderthals who are not enthusiastic to share the game with women. Notable Quotes:  On being a "golf widow": “My husband would go out on weekends and play golf all day, and I was left home with 3 children...I originally had no interest in the sport, and thought it was boring." On the origins of Women on Course: “Our film about women in golf was first shown on AOL, and we had more than 30,000 emails from women asking how they could get into the game. That was the catalyst for turning the concept into an event platform. It started out as a happy hour at...

"There are signs that the Iranians would want sanctions relief, but they also have the ability to endure and don't seem to mind imposing real austerity on their own country. Economic leverage is a lever that can work but obviously by itself is not sufficient." On today's program, a special program that delves into the torrid world of mideast politics with two of our country's greatest experts-- Ambassador Dennis Ross and Michael Singh. The two guests and Daniel explore where things really are with the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA) and how the US can perhaps get a process back on track. How desperate should we be do re-enter the agreement? What about the behavior of the new administration is helping Israel's confidence in our goals? How is the Biden administration operating differently-- or similarly-- to that of Trump? The conversation also features an extended section about diplomacy, and how one can conduct diplomacy over the internet. Prospects for optimism also play a role near the end of this wide-ranging discussion. Support Talking Beats with Daniel Lelchuk on Patreon.

As we finally spring ahead and March Madness begins, Independent Americans is the #1 seed in your bracket for fresh, independent news, politics, culture and inspiration. It’s a no-BS perspective you won’t find anywhere else in the media. One that always dominates the paint on national security, foreign affairs, leadership, and social impact.  March Madness is here. But not just the basketball tournament. Schools are reopening, millions are getting the vaccine, and help from the government is on the way. But the final score of America’s biggest game is still undecided. Texas is still recovering from it’s lights going out, Biden has called Putin a “killer” and put new sanctions on Russia, and a young white white man murdered six Asian American women in a brutal Atlanta shooting spree. March came in like a lion--and is not letting up. And we have a pod---and an inspiring and experienced guest--to help you through to the final buzzer. Bianna Golodryga (@BiannaGolodryga) has been a thoughtful and trusted fixture in the media for two decades. She is CNN’s dynamic Global Affairs analyst, an expert on Russia, a native Texan, a mother, an inspiring American immigration story, and a huge basketball fan. She’s been co-host of CBS “This Morning”, co-host of ABC’s “Good Morning America”, and an anchor for Yahoo News. After migrating to the US as a child from Moldova, in the former Soviet Union, Bianna grew up in Houston as a Rockets fan, and started her journalism career as a producer for CNBC. She’s interviewed newsmakers including President Clinton, Condoleezza Rice and Warren Buffett. She also went to High School with Beyonce and Estaban Powell from the Texas classic, Dazed and Confused.  Bianna joins Independent Americans and our host Paul Rieckhoff (@PaulRieckhoff) for a smart and fun conversation about the most urgent issues in America. They power through the spin and complexity, and post up on how to survive hard times, parenting in the pandemic, and the importance of caffeine. And Rieckhoff shares what it was like to take one of the biggest shots of his life: the COVID-19 vaccine. It’s a fast-paced conversation between Rieckhoff and another iconic, important and inspiring American. The kind of conversation with a thought-leader that has defined Independent Americans for almost two years. It’s the perfect podcast to guide you through the madness and into the most anticipated spring of our lifetime.  America is more divided than ever. But Independent Americans adds light to contrast all the heat of other political shows. Every show brings the Righteous Media 5 I’s: independence, integrity, information, inspiration and impact--and leaves you empowered and inspired.  If you’re among the 40% of Americans who are independent, this is your show.

International Women's Day @ The Hoover Institution | A Focus On Women In National Security   Monday, March 8, 2021 Hoover Institution, Stanford University   To celebrate International Women’s Day, the Director of the Hoover Institution and the 66th Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice, hosted a conversation with four of our leading female national security and foreign policy scholars: Elizabeth Economy, Rose Gottemoeller, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, and Amy Zegart on March 8 from 2:15 - 3:30PM PT. Each of these esteemed Hoover Fellows is releasing a book this year addressing the vital issues of our day. Through the lens of their own experiences, Secretary Rice and these scholars will discuss women's leadership, diversity, talent, and accomplishments in national security, as well as the challenges and rewards of working in this environment.   We honor the contributions of women at every level and in every facet of national security. Our Hoover Fellows’ commitment to continued research increasingly shapes the narratives, priorities, rules, and assessments of policy making.  ABOUT THE BOOKS The World According to China, by Elizabeth Economy The World According to China explores China's ambitions to transform the international system by reclaiming contested territories, reshaping the geostrategic landscape, and reforming the system of global governance to reflect Chinese norms and values. It argues that China's well-defined and highly-coordinated foreign policy playbook has contributed to significant progress in realizing the country's strategic objectives, while at the same time creating the conditions that are likely to undermine its future success. Negotiating the New START Treaty, by Rose Gottemoeller An invaluable insider’s account of the New START treaty negotiations between the US and Russian delegations in Geneva in 2009 and 2010. It examines the crucially important discussions about the treaty between President Barack Obama and President Dmitry Medvedev, and it describes the tough negotiations needed to gain the support of the Senate for the treaty. And importantly, at a time when the US Congress stands deeply divided, it tells the story of how, in a previous time of partisan division, Republicans and Democrats came together to ratify a treaty to safeguard the future of all Americans. >> Book Details Prey: Immigration, Islam, and the Erosion of Women's Rights, by Ayaan Hirsi Ali Deeply researched and featuring fresh and often shocking revelations, Prey uncovers a sexual assault and harassment crisis in Europe that is turning the clock on women’s rights much further back than the #MeToo movement is advancing it. No one in a position of power wants to admit that the eruption of sexual violence and harassment in Europe’s cities is linked to the arrival of several million migrants—most of them young men—from Muslim-majority countries. Pretending the problem doesn’t exist is the surest way to empower not only the far right but also the Islamists, whose solution entails even greater restrictions on female freedom. >> Book Details Spies, Lies, and Algorithms: The History and Future of American Intelligence, by Amy Zegart America’s spy agencies face a moment of reckoning. Although espionage has always been part of great power conflict, emerging technologies like AI, commercial satellites, and social media are empowering new enemies and opportunities, generating crushing volumes of data and tools to understand it, putting information at everyone’s fingertips, and creating powerful new decision-makers outside of governments. Spies, Lies, and Algorithms: The History and Future of American Intelligence is designed to be a fun read with a serious purpose: examining the history of the CIA and America’s 16 other intelligence agencies and assessing the challenges they confront in the digital age. MODERATED BY Condoleezza Rice is the Tad and Dianne Taube Director of the Hoover Institution and the Thomas and Barbara Stephenson Senior Fellow on Public Policy. In addition, she is a founding partner of Rice, Hadley, Gates & Manuel LLC, an international strategic consulting firm. Rice served as the sixty-sixth secretary of state of the United States (2005-2009) and as President George W. Bush’s national security adviser (2001 to 2005).
