Return to Cuba - January’s destination
Cuba is a place of curious beauty - a combination of old culture, old cars, new leaders and new tourism. Our 2013 Council expedition to Cuba proved to be one of our most popular journeys. The Council is proud to announce it will lead a return trip January 4-11 in the New Year. Itinerary and pricing details to come. Place your name on the “I’m interested” list by emailing jlancaster@dfwworld.org.

SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT IN JULY
In keeping with the Council’s reputation as a splendid motivator for significant conversation about important topics, we’re going to the big screen in July with the film Not My Life. It is a documentary about the “cruel and dehumanizing practices of human trafficking and modern slavery on a global scale.”

The presentation of Not My Life is a program of the World Affairs Councils of America with support provided by a grant from Carlson & the Carlson Family Foundation. Council members have free admission to this July 17 screening at the Angelica Film Center Café Dallas. Learn more.
