Cindy FranklinNext Thursday, September 12th from 3 – 4:30 in Kuykendall room 410, Cynthia Franklin, UH English professor and author, will be discussing her trip to Palestine.

A piece she wrote several months back appeared in Portside, so this is a reminder about the event I announced there.  Franklin wrote something brilliant and sensitive about her journey– I can only imagine that her talk will be even more powerful. Perhaps equally as interesting will be the Q&A. I look forward to the talk and the community dialogue, particularly with the plans being readied for another US military action in the Middle East.
