On September 12, 2002, Yaron Brook, executive director of the Ayn Rand Institute, inaugurated the ARI Lecture Series before a crowd of 600 with a lecture titled “9/11—One Year Later: Why America Is Losing the War!” Since then, the series has presented about six free public talks per year on topics ranging from ethics to foreign policy to history. With the opening of the Ayn Rand Center for Individual Rights in Washington, DC, the ARI Lecture Series was renamed to the ARC Speaker Series.
