Thanksgiving Dinner

We are delighted to announce, that former US ambassador to Germany and current democratic Governor of New Jersey, Philip Murphy, also a Harvard club of Berlin Member, will provide us Thanksgiving greetings and as a keynote speaker, we are delighted to have Susan Neiman, author of “Learning from the Germans: Race and the Memory of Evil”, current Director of the Einstein Forum and also a Harvard Alumnus, who will provide us a thought-provoking talk on how Germans and Americans have reckoned with the past (or not).

This evening will not be a traditional frontal Webinar. Our Zoom capabilities will enable everyone to partake via Video and to participate with their own voice.

We will ensure the evening will have many moments of informal exchange while sharing a meal together, provide ample time for Q&A for Susan Neiman’s talk and close the evening with a “tour the table”: on the theme of gratitude we invite you to share what you are grateful for in these challenging times.

Register now - and reserve your meal until Thursday, November 18, 2020

  • Choice of Roasted Turkey OR Vegetarian Lentil Nut Loaf
  • Mashed Potatoes & Gravy (Turkey Gravy or Vegetarian Mushroom Gravy based on main dish selection)

The price of the meal for 2 persons is 58€ and you can order in multiples of 2 (2, 4, 6 etc. ). It is not possible to order a single portion.  

As a special thanks for our members we will cover the costs of this Thanksgiving Dinner for 2 persons for 35 members. During this time we want to show solidarity and thank you, our loyal members, who have supported us so successfully for many years and with your contributions we as a club have been able to develop so many great projects. Therefore, we ask that those, who can well afford this amount, to pay for the dinner in full and for those who do not have such a large budget, we offer the dinner free of charge on a first come, first serve basis.

In order to deliver your choice of menu, please provide us with the following information:

  • Delivery information: name, address (including any special instructions like building or floor number), phone number and email.
  • Please select your preferred option:
    • Option 1: Regular Roasted Turkey for 2 people

Please note, that a delivery is only possible within Berlin and that regular and vegetarian meals can't be mixed and matched - i.e. it's not possible to offer 1 person's meal with meat and 1 person's meal vegetarian. No cancellation possible.

The speech and discussion will be in English. You will get the link to the Zoom meeting and the dial-in information once your registration is confirmed.
