Remembrance and Reflection: Lessons from 9/11 and Ancient Greek Conflicts

On September 11, we reflect on the significance of remembrance. What actions did you take to honor this day? How can we learn from the trials of past tragedies, such as 9/11 or the struggles faced by Ancient Greece during the Persian and Peloponnesian Wars? This week, we will dive into the pages of "War, Glory, and Decline" and explore Alexander’s Empire, while also examining the ancient rivalries that shaped history. Let’s engage with the legacy of conflict and consider the trials and triumphs of both our past and present.
