Keynote Lunch with Eugene Robinson

Tuesday, January 30

Today’s News: Who’s Up, Who’s Down and What’s Really Going On 
Gene Robinson is on the front lines of news coverage today. He is a twice-weekly, Pulitzer Prize-winning columnist for The Washington Post who is syndicated in 145 newspapers across the nation and a prominent television commentator.  Widely recognized for his uncanny ability to speak truth to power, Robinson will present a tested perspective on today’s political news and share his firsthand account of how the news media is influencing American culture through the 24/7 news cycle. With an innate ability to cut through the clutter and provide clarity on today’s events, Robinson takes a step back not only to look at the big picture, but to focus on deeds—not just words. As one of the most prominent African American intellectuals on the culture scene and author of Disintegration: The Splintering of Black America, Robinson will also share his understanding of race relations in the United States today and explains why many popular conceptions are now obsolete.
