Washington Metro Oasis at the Macy's Home Store

American history is filled with political leaders who were intelligent, experienced, and capable — and who still made carefully considered decisions that proved catastrophic. From John Adams’ embrace of the Alien and Sedition Acts to a parade of miscalculations stretching across two centuries of American politics, we’ll examine not the impulsive blunders but the strategic decisions — ones that made sense at the time to the people making them — and trace the consequences that followed.<a href="https://washington-metro.oasiseverywhere.org/product/unforced-errors-15-bad-decisions-that-changed-american-history/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Register here.</a>About Washington Metro Oasis: Our mission is to empower adults age 50+ to lead active, healthy and enriched lives through a unique mix of lifelong learning, social, health and volunteer programs.
