Capital Area World Affairs Group

Have you traveled overseas, or would you like to? Were you born in another country, or do you know people who were? Or, do you just like to read a lot? If you would like to tell us what you know or just listen to others, the World Affairs Group meets on the second Tuesday of every month, offering good, affordable Indian food and a brisk discussion of what is happening in the world right now.

 

Location:

We will meet in the Delhi Club restaurant, at 1135 North Highland Street in Clarendon, Virginia. The Delhi Club is across the street from the Clarendon Metro station -- in fact, you can see it from the front door of the station.

Time:

The World Affairs Group will meet on Tuesday, April 13, at 6:30 PM

Revolution In Kyrgyzstan

Readings:

Nobody needs to read or study anything at all before joining The World Affairs Group. Nonetheless, I have drawn up a brief list of articles for people who would like to brush up on the topic in advance.
