The Jefferson Educational Society’s Global Summit began on Monday, featuring an impressive host of speakers including President George W. Bush. We were fortunate speak to two Global Summit keynote speakers on our program. First up was Anita McBride, Executive-in-Residence at the Center for Congressional and Presidential Studies at American University, talking about The History and Role of First Ladies. Then we turned to Dr. Camille Busette, Senior Fellow at the Brookings Institution, who discussed her work on the power of policy reform to address racial justice specifically here in Erie.
