We'll be hearing from Bahraini journalist Nada Alwadi, who was jailed for reporting on the pro-democracy protests in 2011; Burmese activist Tim Aye-Hardy, who helped spark the nationwide uprising in 1988 and recently returned from his first trip home in more than two decades; and Salon editor Natasha Lennard, who has covered law enforcement repression of U.S. activist groups. Space is limited, so RSVP today! Performance Studies Dept. Studio 721 Broadway, 6th floor 7 p.m. Hors d'oeuvres and drinks will be on hand.
