Description:

The Office of the President & One Book One Northwestern are pleased to announce that the One Book keynote with Bryan Stevenson will take place on Tuesday, May 3 at 4:30 pm at Pick Staiger.

Author Bryan Stevenson's Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption was the 2020-2021 selection for One Book One Northwestern. Professor Stevenson’s keynote was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and we are delighted to have this opportunity to continue the conversation that began last year.

Faculty Chair Jennifer Lackey, the Director of the Northwestern Prison Education Program, the Wayne and Elizabeth Jones Professor of Philosophy, and Professor of Law (courtesy) will be in conversation with Mr. Stevenson. In addition to the tickets, we will be providing a live stream of the conversation for everyone unable to obtain a ticket. Only people who register for tickets will be provided the link for the live stream.

This event is free and open to the public. The Northwestern community will get early access to the tickets.
