Human Rights Activist, Documentarian to Offer Guest Lecture, Mar. 26
The Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences will welcome Jen Marlowe—an award-winning documentary filmmaker, author, playwright, and human rights activist—to speak at NSU on Monday, Mar. 26, 5:00 p.m. in the Carl DeSantis Building’s Knight Auditorium. The talk, “Reflections on Resistance,” serves as the college’s annual lecture supported by the Stolzenberg-Doan Family Endowment.
Marlowe will discuss marginalization and oppression across the globe and examine individuals who have practiced nonviolent resistance. The event is hosted by the college’s Division of Humanities.
Through a variety of films and books, Marlowe has documented struggles in Sudan and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as well as the conviction of Troy Davis, a Georgia Death Row inmate executed by the state in Sept. 2011 despite mounting claims of innocence. She has also worked with youth in Afghanistan, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Cyprus, India, and Pakistan.
This event is free, and open to the NSU community.
