Event Description:
“Rethinking the Tet Offensive,
50 Years On”
Lien-Hang T. Nguyen
Dorothy Borg Associate Professor in the History of the United States and East Asia, Columbia University
The Tet Offensive of 1968 was the largest and bloodiest military campaign of the Vietnam War. It is often seen as a decisive turning point, when American public opinion and leadership began to see the war as unwinnable. 50 years later, one of the leading historians of the Vietnam War will present her latest research and discuss the lessons learned from the war for the US today.
