Nearly 20 years ago, on June 5, 2004, we lost President Ronald Reagan. He’d retired from public life years before after announcing his Alzheimer’s diagnosis in an emotional and incredibly inspiring letter to the nation, but the outpouring of love and grief upon the news of his death showed that he still held a place in America’s heart.
There’s no doubt that both Reagan and his policies as President of the United States (particularly ending the Cold War) have greatly influenced the world and shaped history. How has his presidency influenced America and the world in the 20 years since he’s been gone, and how will it continue to shape America and the world? That’s the question that will be discussed during an upcoming event at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Simi Valley, California, on the anniversary of Reagan’s death.
