Hello HAWers!
We hope that you are having a nice Sunday (despite the rainy weather, if you are in Ithaca!).
While we are sorry that we were forced to postpone the discussion with Larry Glickman (new date TBD), we are very excited that our workshop with David Perry is coming up in two weeks! As we previously mentioned, this is the most important event of our series about public writing.
David is a freelance journalist covering politics, history, education, and disability rights. He has a lot of experience on how to take academic expertise and share it with a much broader audience. Over the last few years, his work has appeared in: CNN.com, The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Guardian, The Washington Post, The Nation, The Los Angeles Times, The Daily Beast,Vice.com, Rolling Stone, the Chronicle of Higher Education, Salon, Chicago Tribune, Pacific Standard Magazine, Newsweek, Playboy, USA Today, The Marshall Project, NBC News, Al Jazeera America, Eater, The Establishment, Rewire.com, Yahoo! Parenting, Crux, GEN, The Mary Sue, and many others.
You can find out more about his work on his website: https://www.davidmperry.com
Of course, it would have been more fun to host David in person, but the pandemic prevented us from doing so, and we are very happy that he will be able to join us on Zoom.
The workshop will take place on Friday, April 9, from 1 to 3 pm EST.

Hoping to see many of you at the workshop,
Benedetta & Kelsey
