DEAR COLLEAGUES IN LEARNING, As LLHHI begins its ninth

Kahlil Gibran: His Writings/His Life
Born in Lebanon in 1883, and immigrated to the United States in 1895 with his
mother, two sisters and a brother. The family settled into the large Lebanese
population in Boston. The most famous of his works, The Prophet is only one
among his many writings, all of which show the tender touch of a poet and
the inquiring mind of a philosopher. This two session class will cover the
highlights of his life, the story of his family, and the beauty of his words.
It should be noted that the Telfair Museum in Savannah has one of the world’s
largest collections of Gibran memorabilia. Attendees should come to class
with a copy of The Prophet.
Jim Kadra has taught a number of popular writing and literature courses for LLHHI since its inception. He is

local authors know well and love to write about.
January 8 - The Basics of Writing Fiction
This presentation by David McDonald will cover the elements of the craft of writing fiction from start to
finish. If you are a storyteller, you can learn this craft. Start with the basics and add imagination.
David McDonald is a graduate engineer who loved his first career, traveling the world keeping commercial
jets flying. He finds his second career, writing, equally satisfying. In retrospect, he was always collecting
data…sights, smells, sounds, emotions, experiences, and stories to tell. He has written ten novels.

Great Decisions: 2014
Dr. Isam Sakati will cover four topics…all prominent in today’s news
and of vital interest to all Americans.
January 9 - Turkey:
Turkey’s first Prime Minister, Kemel Ataturk, envisioned a modern,
democratic nation-state built on the ashes of the Ottoman Empire
with strong ties to Europe, not the Middle East. But, clashes between
secular and religious groups and recent protests in Taksim show, the
soul of Turkey is still very much up for grabs.
January 16 - Islamic Awakening:
The aftermath of the Arab Spring has resulted in unforeseen changes in the political landscape of
many countries, especially regarding the role of Islam and democracy. How have the countries in the
Maghreb reacted, including Tunisia where it all began? Is U.S. foreign policy adapting successfully to all
the changes in the region?
January 23 - Energy Independence:
Taking the bargaining chip of oil dependence off the table would be good for American foreign policy.
But the technological advances that have made independence possible have created a dilemma for
lawmakers. Should the U.S. encourage more traditional fuel production or invest in renewables?
January 30 - Food and Climate:
Even as a sixth of the world’s population suffers from chronic hunger, a changing climate threatens
to wreak havoc on already insecure and vulnerable people. As water becomes scarce and once fertile
land becomes barren, the U.S. is faced with new challenges securing the globe. Can we lead the way to
climate reform?
Great Decisions 2014 reading material can be purchased at www.fpa.org/great_decisions.
Dr. Sakati is a native of Damascus, Syria, educated at the American University of Beirut. Before retirement
to Hilton Head, he practiced medicine in upstate New York for thirty years. He has led the Great Decisions

and Case-Western Reserve University in Cleveland. He also is the author of several books.
Four Sessions: 10 AM to 12 Noon, Thursdays • TidePointe (Second right off Point Comfort Road.)
Syria: From Hope to Despair: Is Hope Enough?
The conflict in Syria grew out of the 2011 Arab Spring
protests, when Syrians peacefully demonstrated in towns
across the country against President Bashir Assad. Unlike
some other countries facing democratic protests, the
Syrian government responded with violence, killing more
than 130,000 and creating more than two million refugees.
Civilians began to take up arms, at first to defend their
demonstrations and later to fight security forces in their
cities and towns. This nascent armed movement was at first
bolstered by army defectors who organized themselves, with Turkish help, under the umbrella of the
Free Syrian Army, but over time radical Islamists, including some allied with Al Qaeda, came to play
a dominant role in the conflict. From early peaceful demonstrations to the use of chemical weapons,
Syria is caught in the middle of a geopolitical purgatory. Is there a peaceful way out?
A retired Urologist, Dr. Isam Sakati was born and raised in Damascus, Syria, and studied medicine at The
American University of Beirut. He has led many Great Decision Courses for LLHHI, participated in Current
Events and the World Affairs Council.
One Session: 10 AM to 12 Noon, Thursday: February 6 • The Seabrook (Off Pope Avenue.)

World Film Gems Worth Seeing Again
What makes a film worth seeing again regardless of its ancestry? For some, the
artistry is apparent. For others, the story carries the film past any artistic or technical
flaw. But it seems that those films which cross cultural boundaries and strike a
familiar cord are those that stay with us. They become our favorites simply because
there is just something about them. Here are six examples:
January 10- Shall We Dance? (1996) Something is missing in the life of a Tokyo
salaryman and it just might be ballroom romance. A delightful romantic comedy
by Masayuki Suo starring Koji Yakusho and Tamiyo Kusakari.
January 17 - El Norte (1983) Roger Ebert called this beautiful film, which depicts
the journey of two Mayan siblings to the U.S., “a Grapes of Wrath of our time.”
By Gregory Nara and starring Zaide Silvia Gutierrez and David Villalpando.
January 24 - Cinema Paradiso (1988) A romantic paean to the power of film
and an ode to small-town Sicilian life. Giuseppe Tornatore directed this perennial
favorite and award-winning film starring Philippe Noiret, Salavatore Cascio, Marco
Leonardi and Jacques Perrin.
January 31 - The Night of the Shooting Stars (1982) It is the Night of San
Lorenzo, the Night of the Shooting Stars, and a young mother tells her son of a
similar night long ago when her Tuscan town defied the Nazis and their Fascist
allies. Realismo and “magical realism” combine in this film by Paolo and Vittorio
Taviani starring Omero Antonutti and Margarita Lozano.
February 7 - Das Boot/The Boat (1981) The films’ tagline “Eine Reise ans Ende
des Verstansdes”- means “what war is all about” and it delivers in epic style. The
film is a masterpiece of the submarine-at-war genre by Wolfgang Petersen and
starring Jurgen Prochnow, Herbert Gronemeyer and Klaus Wennemann.
February 14 - The Commitments (1991) This comedy-drama is the story of a
working class group of Dubliners committed to forming a soul band. It packs
wonderful humor, memorable characters, and great music into a delightful
mélange. The film was directed by Alan Parker and stars Robert Arkins, Colm
Meaney, Andrew Strong and Maria Doyle.
Mike McDonell has presented several foreign film series including last winter’s
sampling of the films of Akira Kurosawa, as well as Federico Fellini’s “greatest hits,”
and Vietnam through the eyes of various directors. He is always looking for “world
film gems” so feel free to let him know about your favorites.

Before It’s Too Late: Our Aging Veterans Tell Their Stories
Our World War II veterans are dying every day and Korean and
Vietnam veterans are not far behind. For so many, this is a last
chance to alert and remind current and future generations of
hard-won past epochs. Through a PowerPoint presentation

the stories of their military experiences. The course will present
personal accounts of historic battles and events—the D-Day
invasion, The Battle of the Bulge, The Battle of Iwo Jima, The

contributions and struggles of African Americans as they traversed the arduous road to freedom.
January 11 - The 54th Regiment
Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. This was
the first official African American unit in the

of the 54th Massachusetts from the standpoint of its white commanding officer, Colonel Robert Gould
Shaw, played by Matthew Broderick. Also starring are Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman.
February 1 - Bound for Canaan: The Underground Railroad and the African American Quest for
Freedom. Ron Roth joins us from the Humanities Council of South Carolina to bring to life the heroic
and perilous story of the southern slaves’ attempts to escape to the North. He will include first-person
narratives of runaway slaves, the courageous work of “conductors” like Harriet Tubman, and the role
played by African American churches.
Ron Roth researched and wrote the script for the permanent exhibition area of the Central Pennsylvania
Museum in Reading, PA, and its exhibit on the Underground Railway in central Pennsylvania.
February 8 - Dawn of Freedom: The Freeman’s Town of Mitchelville. In November 1862, Union
General Ormsby Mitchel proclaimed that the land the people of Mitchelville, SC, had toiled on as
slaves was now their own. Dr. Ben Williams and Charles Young tell the triumphant and touching story
of the rise of the first self-governed settlement for freedmen in the U.S. here on Hilton Head Island.
