Native Peoples of North America–Part 2<br />
DVD lectures series by Professor Daniel M. Cobb,<br />
University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill<br />
Native Americans are with us today in surprising numbers and<br />
contribute to our modern world in ways which most of us are<br />
only superficially aware. This illustrated lecture provides a new<br />
appreciation of the conditions and issues they are facing, and<br />
confronts all Americans about their perceptions of Native American<br />
identity in the 21st century.<br />

TED Talks at Lunch<br />
TED Talks are short (18 minutes or less) presentations on a variety<br />
of subjects. <strong>OLLI</strong> Members are encouraged to visit the TED website<br />
(www.ted.com/talks) to select your preferred topics. Send your<br />
list to the <strong>OLLI</strong> Office (olli@CSUDH.edu), and we’ll compile a list<br />
of favorites which will be the lectures we’ll watch. Members are<br />
invited to bring their lunch and watch a TED Talk together, and<br />
then discuss the issues.<br />
Deadline to submit is January 29, <strong>Spring</strong> <strong>2019</strong> Open House.<br />
TED is a nonprofit devoted to spreading ideas, founded in 1984<br />
as a conference where Technology, Entertainment and Design<br />
converged, and today covers almost all topics — from science to<br />
business to global issues — in more than 100 languages.<br />
Meanwhile, independently run TEDx events help share ideas in<br />
communities around the world.<br />
