Nicola Clark and Hubert Lebrun meet in a small town in Lorraine, France, where Clark's grandfather was a soldier in the invading German army and Lebrun's grandparents were residents of the small town of Mercy-le-Haut. This brings back stories of the execution of 17 year old Leon Mandy by the Germans, and the "monuments aux morts" in the town, one of 40,000 such memorials in France to war victims. An opportunity for both Germans and Frenchmen to reflect on the memories of that war.

The Man Who Saved Europe the Last Time
WSJ 04/28/2017
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
