This page presents the viewer with video presentations and clips related to topics of import. They may be lengthy discussions from a C-SPAN sponsored event or brief pieces from a YouTube type of medium. The videos are designed to either shed light on a particular issue or advance the debate on contemporary events such as the War on Terror, global warming, or gay marriage, to name just a few possibilities. The pieces are also meant as supplemental material for topics presented and discussed in the courses I teach.

Here are links to the debate on gay marriage held at Pace University in March 2007 and aired by C-SPAN2. They are “streamed” in three segments.

They are a total of 60 minutes long. Feel free to watch them in their entirety. I recommend, of course, that you watch An Inconvenient Truth before viewing this rebuttal.
