Newswise — Former NATO Supreme Allied Commander Gen. Wesley K. Clark (ret.) will share his thoughts on U.S. strategy during the COVID-19 outbreak Thursday night as part of a webinar with students at Tulane University.

Clark will speak to the political science students of associate professor Chris Fettweis, an international relations expert who will also moderate the discussion. Clark’s appearance is also open to the public. The webinar will begin at 5 p.m. (CST) and includes a question and answer period.

Clark, a 2004 Presidential candidate and a CNN military analyst, is speaking as part of his “Renew America Together” initiative, which he founded in 2019 to promote and achieve greater common ground in America by reducing partisan division and gridlock. Its mission is to revitalize public and political discourse by teaching and promoting civics, citizenship and civility.
