- 4:00 PM1h 30mLincoln and the Fight for Peace with CNN's John AvlonJoin OLLI Boca for an afternoon with CNN anchor and senior political analyst, John Avlon, as he presents a new angle on the most-written about president, which he explores in his latest book, “Lincoln and the Fight for Peace.” Avlon makes the point that character is the most important quality in a president. Lincoln’s model of leadership, anchored in forgiveness and magnanimity, was driven by his personal attributes including empathy, honor, humor and humility. Lincoln’s plan for reconciliation is best codified in the last paragraph of his second inaugural address, which begins “With malice toward none with charity for all…” It is a vision that continues to inspire peacemakers and guide plans for reconciliation. This is a very special live, in-person only event. An opportunity to purchase the book and have it signed will immediately follow the event.
