Hosted this event and provided the video. My name is justin. I am the president of the National Civic arts society. We are delighted you could join us this evening to hear sabin howard present his classical design for the National World war i memorial. Founded in 2002, the society educates and empowers our leaders in the promotion of public art and architecture worthy of our great republic. We do so by advocating for the Classical Tradition and civic design. We believe that tradition is unparalleled in its dignity, beauty, and harmony and not to mention its legibility to the common man. It is no accident that the Founding Fathers chose the classical style when designing the Nations Capital and its core buildings of government. The founders sought to harken back to rome and athens and they knew classical architecture was timehonored and timeless. The National Civic arts Society Works to continue and expand upon the vision of the founders for the federal design generally. I perhaps dont

Public art and architecture worthy of our great republic. We do so by advocating for the Classical Tradition in civic design. We believe that tradition is unparalleled in its dignity, beauty and harmony, not to mention its legibility to the common man. It is no accident that the Founding Fathers chose the classical style when designing the Nations Capital and its core buildings of government. The founders sought to harken back to republic rome and democratic athens and knew that classical architecture was time honored and timeless. The National Civic arts Society Works to continue and expand upon the founders vision for the Nations Capital in federal design generally. I perhaps dont need to tell you that since the 1950s, washington, d. C. Has been marred and disfigured by federal buildings and memorials that do not comport with the citys classical heritage and identity. For instance, there is the hirshhorn museum, which looks like a gun slit bunker. Then theres the brutalist fbi buildi
Oh beautiful many of us felt like we would never really get a chance to fight. I didnt realize at the time it was because of the color of my skin. America the story of africanamericans in world war ii is indeed a legacy of patriotism and valor. In 1941, americans looked at their world and saw war everywhere. Across the atlantic, german troops occupied nearly every inch of europe, from france to russia, to the baltic sea to africa. In the pacific, the Japanese Army has captured many areas. Pearl harbor would stun the United States into war. The first thing i did was go down to the Army Recruiting station and enlist in the service of my country. I was told there was no quarter for black troops. You got to remember that this country was very discriminatory, d segregated and there was no change. First of all, black sailors as sailors per se werent permitted into the navy. Given the fact that i was in the segregated army, that made no difference. I joined the army to fight for the country.
