- The National Mall is a national treasure that plays a central role in the life of the D.C. community and the nation. While the historic 1791 L’Enfant Plan and later enhancements of the 1902 McMillan Plan established a visionary program for developing this public space for the nation’s capital, subsequent fragmented government oversight and piecemeal planning continues to undermine the development of a coherent and environmentally sustainable program. This panel of activists, policy makers, architects, and urban designers discussed the challenges today in rising above jurisdictional interests and creating a discerning plan for the Mall that advances an effective creative vision for the 21st century.

In advance of the IACHR hearing, a coalition of human rights groups from the U.S. and Latin America held a public event at NYU Washington, DC, addressing the need for transparency and accountability for the CIA torture and secret detention program. What does U.S. failure to act in the face of well-documented acts of torture mean to global human rights and what are the consequences for endorsing impunity? What lessons could be learned from the Latin American experience in the search for truth and justice and ensuring non-repetition of torture and enforced disappearances?

Under a potential deal, Iran would put significant limitations on its nuclear program in exchange for sanctions relief from the international community. But the detail and effects of any potential agreement are far from simple. Iran’s regional rivals, who are core U.S. partners in the Middle East, are deeply concerned about how a deal will change regional power dynamics. There are also questions about economic competition, particularly in energy markets in the aftermath of a nuclear deal. And there are many questions about how the United States and the European Union would be able to re-impose their punishing economic sanctions in the event that Iran does not adhere to a deal. To address these questions, the Center for a New American Security and the Center on Law and Security at NYU School of Law convened a high level forum of Middle East and sanctions experts to discuss Iran and the future...

- Description
- Take care of your teeth, your dentist says, because they have to last you your whole life. But the truth is that even with a few cavities they'll probably outlast you—by tens of thousands of years. In fact, a set of teeth and perhaps a piece of a jaw are often all anthropologists have to work with when combing the fossil record for clues about human evolution. Fortunately, these ancient dental records can provide a wealth of information about our ancestors—from what they ate to how they lived. In this video, associate professor of anthropology Shara Bailey describes some of the things teeth have taught us about where we came from—and what special adaptations we still carry in our mouths today. By identifying a particular tooth, for example, she was able to help prove that humans coexisted with Neanderthals in the same area of western Europe about 42,000 years ago.
