What was the secret to effective protest movements in recent history? How did activists find their footing, when did they flounder and when is activism a poor substitute for organizing? Voices from the front lines. Featuring Congresswoman Barbara Lee (D-CA), activist and early member of ACT UP Peter Staley, and community organizer and Executive Director of the Inner-City Muslim Action Network (IMAN), Dr. Rami Nashashibi. Moderated by Katie Benner of the New York Times. Dinner will be served following the discussion. If you have any questions about accessibility, please contact iopevents@uchicago.edu.
