| Description |
The eighth session of the Modern Media Censorship lectures features the work of independent journalists Benjamin Dangl and Jacob Wheeler.
Benjamin Dangl has traveled and worked as an independent journalist around the world. He is the founder of UpsideDownWorld.org. His main focus is Latin America, where he has written about social movements in Argentina, Bolivias resource wars, human rights in Chile, media in Cuba and Venezuelan politics. Ben is coming to SSU to discuss his award-winning coverage of the unprecedented changes taking place throughout South America and the US-backed militarism that is reemerging in response.
Jacob Wheeler is the Assistant Editor at In These Times magazine. A Danish-American who is fluent in four languages, Jacob began working at the magazine in February 2007. His international interests include Central America and he plans to pen a series of stories for In These Times on El Salvadors potentially groundbreaking 2009 elections. Jacob will discuss his award-winning story about the Global War on Terror, the criminalization of protest in El Salvador, and how it all relates to water resources. |
