An Evening with Nicholas Kristof

Two-time Pulitzer Prize winner and longtime New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof is a weekly must-read in my household. His travels into the world’s news hot spots and oft-forgotten places offer a sobering view of humanity, and the United States’ role in both the uplift and suffering of people across the globe. Whether he’s reporting from protests in Tiananmen Square or the Darfur genocide (his coverage of each earned him those Pulitzers), or offering hope via books written with his wife Sheryl WuDunn, like A Path Appears, Kristof always has something to say that’s worth reading, or in this case, listening to in person. His Spokane visit is a joint production of Humanities Washington as part of its fall series, Moment of Truth: Journalism and Democracy in the Age of Misinformation, and Gonzaga’s Center for Public Humanities.
