SUMMARY:Phases of Civilization: An Assyrian Legacy
DESCRIPTION:The Assyrian Cultural Foundation is honored to unveil the highly anticipated release of “Phases of Civilization: An Assyrian Legacy.” Immerse yourself in this cinematic experience on April 30th at 12pm (CST) as we celebrate the rich history and contributions of the Assyrian people. \nThe movie will be available on our YouTube channel below: \nhttps://youtu.be/wz4R3EVPdQE \nThe achievements of the Assyrian civilization have inspired and influenced our world for over 5\,000 years. This film Phase of Civilization An Assyrian Legacy explores the contributions these people from Mesopotamia have made to our modern society. The Assyrians were the first culture to discover a writing system\, they also developed a concept of law and order as well as devising a numerical system that is the basis of our modem mathematics. Remarkably\, the fundamental ideas and inventions of the Assyrians have remained virtually unaltered from generation to generation. These fascinating discoveries and many more interesting facts are explored in detail in this film.

SUMMARY:Demotic\, Kathourevousa\, and the Making of Greek Nation
DESCRIPTION:The debate as to whether Demotic (the spoken language of ordinary people) or Katharevousa (a cultivated recreation of Ancient Greek) should be the official language of Greece was a major political and cultural issue throughout the 19th and 20th century. A question of identity\, class\, and history\, the language question has much to tell us about Greece\, the Greek people\, and the weight of history. This NHM Discussion explores what the debate over the official language of Greece tells us about the past and future of Greece.

SUMMARY:Greek Independence in the Early American Republic
DESCRIPTION:In the early days of the American Republic the question of Greek Independence was one of the major issues of the day\, frequently standing as a proxy for America’s own tumultuous internal politics. This included the debate of slavery\, where the Turkish occupation of Greek lands was often used as neutral stand-in for the topic of American chattel slavery. In this special NHM Discussion for Greek Independence Day\, we will explore the American interest in the Greek War of Independence and its consequences for both young nations.
