The Carrboro Cybrary and Carrboro Recreation & Parks present “Presidents, Politics & Power: American Presidents Who Shaped the 20th Century.” Each week we will be viewing a film that provides a presidential biography and opens up a discussion of our nation’s leaders. The presidents included in the series are: Teddy Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. Following each film, Dr. David Zonderman, a history professor at NC State, will lead us in discussion and answer questions. You can pick up a packet of short essays at the Cybrary that will help inform the discussion. Come learn about the impact of past presidents before voting in a new one this year. This program is made possible in part by a grant from the North Carolina Humanities Council, an affiliate of the National Endowment for the Humanities. Preview the series by viewing the first video online via NC Live! Log in to NC Live from the Cybrary’s website and go to the new NC Live Media Collection. Click on TR: The Story of Theodore Roosevelt, Parts 1 & 2. Then, come join us in the Century Center for another viewing and discussion on Monday, January 28th.
