Amy Goodman will speak at Trinity University as part of the Maverick Lecture Series. Her presentation, “Democracy Now!” will take place at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 7, in Trinity’s Stieren Theater. The event is free and open to the public.

The Maverick Lecture honors the late Maury Maverick Jr., the legendary civil rights lawyer, former member of the Texas Legislature, former Marine, and iconoclastic newspaper columnist.

The lecture series explores topics that defined Maverick’s place in American civic discourse. These topics include threats to constitutional liberty, with particular emphasis on the First Amendment, issues of poverty and race, Western occupation of Third World Countries, and the moral requirements of war.
