The European Studies Center and the World Affairs Council of Pittsburgh organized a classroom talk for the ESC's Transatlantic Media Fellow visitor, Joanna Skrzypiec. Joanna spoke with two groups of students about her career, her country of Poland, and discussed the similarities and differences between the current political atmospheres in the U.S. and Europe (in particular her home country of Poland). Ms. Kate Daher of CAPA Pittsburgh hosted Amiena Mahsoob (WAC Pittsburgh), Joanna and I. Another CAPA educator, Ms. Erin Breault, partnered with Ms. Daher to bring her students to the talk with Joanna. From this experience students were able to gain an understanding of European and Polish politics and discuss the current political election in the United States and draw connections between the rise of the right in each region. Additionally, the Center strengthened it's connections with Pittsburgh CAPA as the two participating educators both spoke about continuing to collaborate to bring future visitors to the school.
