  • Reconciliation in America's Museums: Understanding Cultural Patrimony and the Path to Rebuilding Tru
    2025/05/22
    As the lasting impact of colonialism and slavery is felt throughout Native American tribes and Black communities today, museums across the nation are grappling with issues of patrimony and provenance regarding art, artifacts, relics, and remains. These items were often taken without consent, long before ethical protocols for procurement were established.\r\n\r\nNow, museums are working to find solutions in collaboration with community and comply with federal laws, such as the Native American Graves and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). Enacted in the 1990s, the Biden Administration recently issued updated policies that ultimately led to some museums covering up or removing some displays until the appropriate determinations could be made. This act reignited a conversation on museums\' role in reconciliation, addressing historical injustices, and cross-cultural understanding.\r\n\r\nThe City Club is once again proud to partner with The Cleveland Orchestra as part of the third annual Jack, Joseph and Morton Mandel Opera and Humanities Festival. Join us as we hear from museum leadership from Washington, D.C., New York City, and here in Ohio on how American cultural institutions are charting a new path forward on reconciliation and repatriation.

  • Trigger Point: Protecting Medicaid Expansion & Healthcare Access in Ohio
    2025/05/16
    Originally expanded in 2014 under the Kasich administration, Ohio is one of 41 states, including the District of Columbia, that has implemented Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act. However, the addition of trigger language into the current state budget bill would allow Ohio to disenroll from Medicaid expansion if federal assistance for the program drops below 90%. The trigger language comes as congressional Republicans in D.C. consider cutting the federal match for Medicaid expansion.\r\n\r\nFor Ohio, it\'s a move that could strip healthcare access from over 770,000 Ohioans; including about 362,000 in rural Ohio counties.\r\n\r\nAdvocates in health equity, maternal and infant vitality, mental health, and more have sounded the alarm on what it means to return to an era before Medicaid expansion. A rollback would also disproportionately impact rural communities and their hospitals, adding to already staggering health disparities.\r\n\r\nFeaturing:\r\nDomonic Hopson\r\nPresident and CEO, Neighborhood Family Practice\r\n\r\nBeejadi Mukunda, MD\r\nVP & Market Chief Medical Officer, Ohio, CareSource\r\n\r\nAmy Rohling McGee\r\nPresident, Health Policy Institute of Ohio\r\n\r\nModerator\r\nEmily Campbell\r\nPresident & CEO, The Center for Community Solutions

  • The Unseen Truth: When Race Changed Sight in America
    2025/05/09
    Sarah Lewis's book The Unseen Truth: When Race Changed Sight in America examines America from the end of the Civil War to the beginning of Jim Crow when the country\'s conception of race, and whiteness, was transforming. A finalist for the 2025 Anisfield-Wolf Book Awards, Lewis uncovers a pivotal era when Americans came to ignore the truth about the false foundations of the nation's racial regime. Thanks to Professor Lewis's historical detective work, what we see and what's left unseen shapes everything we believe about ourselves and other people - and how we can start changing the narrative about who counts and who belongs in America.\r\n\r\nSarah Lewis is an award-winning art historian, founder of Vision & Justice, and the John L. Loeb Associate Professor of the Humanities and Associate Professor of African and African American Studies at Harvard University. She is also the author of the bestseller The Rise: Creativity, the Gift of Failure, and the Search for Mastery, as well as the forthcoming book Vision & Justice.

  • Former U.S. Sec. of Commerce Wilbur Ross on His Legacy, Tariffs, and Trump Economics
    2025/05/08
    Wilbur Ross has earned a reputation as one of the nation\'s hard-nosed negotiators and "King of Bankruptcy" over his 55-year career on Wall Street. This reputation, in part, landed him among Bloomberg\'s 50 most influential people in global finance, and a role as Secretary of Commerce during Trump\'s first administration.\r\n\r\nAfter coming to Washington, Ross faced tough challenges, yet survived in his post for all four years. During his tenure, Ross was involved in negotiating and implementing tariffs on China and elsewhere. Undoubtedly, there are few others with deep insight into the mind of President Trump, and the President\'s motives on tariffs, taxes, and deregulation policies.\r\n\r\nIn his latest book, Risks and Returns: Creating Success in Business and Life, Ross explains how he got to the top and stayed there. The book serves as a candid reflection of a life lived at the pinnacle of Wall Street, New York, and Palm Beach society, and the Trump administration.

  • 2025 Law Day: Public Education and the Assault on American Democracy
    2025/05/02
    On March 20th, President Trump issued an executive order effectively abolishing the Department of Education. The American Association of University Professors (AAUP) and American Federation of Teachers (AFT) have already filed a lawsuit to block the dismantling, alleging the executive branch has exceeded its constitutional authority and violated law. As the nation watches the flurry of executive orders and legal action unfold on public education, what does this mean for the nation\'s K-12 and higher education students?\r\n\r\nDerek Black is a Professor of Law at the University of South Carolina School of Law, the Ernest F. Hollings Chair in Constitutional Law, and directs the Constitutional Law Center. He is one of the nation's foremost experts in education law and policy. He offers expert witness testimony in school funding, voucher, and federal policy litigation and his research is routinely cited in the federal courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.\r\n\r\nHe is also the author of a leading education law casebook, Education Law: Equality, Fairness, and Reform, and other books aimed at wider audiences. His 2020 book Schoolhouse Burning: Public Education and the Assault on American Democracy describes a full-scale assault on public education that threatens not just public education but American democracy itself. His forthcoming book, Dangerous Learning: The South's Long War on Black Literacy outlines the enduring legacy of the nineteenth-century struggle for Black literacy in the American South.

  • Ukraine: Prospects for Peace and the Future of a Sovereign Nation
    2025/05/01
    As Russia's war with Ukraine entered a fourth year on February 24, 2025, several things happened. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky visited the White House to be told by President Trump that he "did not have the cards;" the US began to pull back aid for Ukrainian forces; and shortly after that Ukraine secured the support of European Union allies and launched a drone attack directly on Moscow. Meanwhile, Russian President Vladimir Putin put his own conditions on any potential ceasefire deal.\r\n\r\nIn the pages of The Atlantic, Johns Hopkins professor Eliot Cohen weighed in, arguing that Russia is actually losing the war. \"Ukraine has plenty of cards,\" Cohen wrote, \"even if Trump and Vance can\'t see them.\"\r\n\r\nHowever and whenever it ends, the resolution of this conflict could have a tectonic impact on geopolitics and power dynamics in Europe and throughout the world. Ambassador Paula Dobriansky joins Professor Cohen in a conversation about the prospects for an enduring peace and the greater impact of the conflict on the region and the global order.

  • The Second Chance Workforce: How Public Policy Can Shape Ohio’s Future
    2025/04/25
    In a July 2024 CNBC report, Ohio ranked 7th in business opportunities but received an "F" grade when it comes to workforce. Employers are looking for workers to advance their businesses and constantly talk about the need for workforce development. Meanwhile, there are thousands of justice-impacted individuals who would welcome the opportunity to work in these jobs. Connecting these two groups would help create a massive increase in the workforce pool and lift the entire economy.\r\n\r\nResearch suggests that Ohio's expansive collateral sanctions limit access to more than one in four jobs statewide, costing individuals an estimated $3.4 billion in foregone wages and artificially constraining access to talent for businesses.\r\n\r\nHow can public policy play a role in helping bridge the gap between these two groups, reduce employment barriers, and assist in providing more individuals with second chances in employment...and in life?\r\n\r\nIn partnership with Lutheran Metropolitan Ministry (LMM), join the City Club as we present the 2025 Charles R. See Forum on Reentry. We will welcome a panel of experts who can share their perspectives on what community leaders can do to answer this question, and what we as a community can do to help.
