Pulitzer Winners to Speak at Brookdale

LINCROFT, NJ (Aug. 27, 2015) – New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof and author Sheryl WuDunn will discuss their new book “A Path Appears: Transforming Lives, Creating Opportunity” at 7 p.m. on Sept. 30 at Brookdale Community College’s Collins Arena, 765 Newman Springs Road, Lincroft.

Kristof and WuDunn, the first married couple to win the Pulitzer Prize for journalism, are renowned for their reporting on global conflicts, social justice and women’s issues. Their first Pulitzer came in 1990, in recognition of their reporting on the Tiananmen Square protests and the pro-democracy student movement in China.

Their latest book tells the stories of ordinary people who are changing the world through innovation, volunteerism and advocacy.

Their talk, hosted by the Center for Holocaust, Human Rights and Genocide Education (Chhange) at Brookdale, is open to all. Community members are invited to join in the discussion and learn how to create positive change close to home.

“These authors have spent decades on the front lines of the fight for human rights,” said Dale Daniels, executive director of Chhange. “Their actions exemplify the mission and work of Chhange. We know their engaging presentation will inspire students and the community at large.”

Advance tickets are available for $30 and include a copy of “A Path Appears.” Tickets at the door are $40 and include a copy of the book while supplies last. Parking is in lots 6 and 7.
