Watch Party: Brexit — A Political Earthquake in Modern Britain

Join us on Monday, Nov. 16, 2026, at 12 p.m. (ET)/ 9 a.m. (PT), for a free one-hour lecture and Q&A to explore the causes and consequences of Brexit.

More than a decade after the referendum, Brexit remains one of the most consequential political decisions in modern British history. Join linguist and historian Nettah Yoeli-Rimmer as he explores the UK’s long and often-uneasy relationship with the European Union, as well as the social, political and economic forces that led to the 2016 vote. This lecture examines the realities of Brexit as they exist today and considers where Britain–EU relations may be heading next, from pragmatic compromise to deeper realignment.

Nettah Yoeli-Rimmer is a cultural historian who studies French and Spanish literature. He holds a master's in European culture from the University of Cambridge and a Ph.D. in 19th-century Spanish literature from the University of Ghent. He has many years of experience leading educational adventures in France, Spain, Italy and Japan. In addition to his principal research, Nettah lectures on European culture and history at the University of Antwerp in Belgium, and he regularly writes for several publications on urban history and architecture.
