Acclaimed journalist Maria Hinojosa will give Transylvania University\u2019s William R. Kenan Jr. Lecture on Tuesday, Feb. 25. The event was rescheduled because of this week’s winter weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The public is invited to the annual talk at 7 p.m. in Haggin Auditorium followed by a book signing. Reserve free tickets<\/a> to the event, which will be livestreamed<\/a>. Tickets for the original date are still valid, so there’s no need to reserve them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hinojosa is the anchor and executive producer of \u201cLatino USA,\u201d a Peabody Award-winning show distributed by NPR and co-host of Futuro Media\u2019s new political podcast \u201cIn The Thick.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She founded Futuro Media Group<\/a> in New York as a nonprofit newsroom “in the service of empowering people to navigate the complexities of an increasingly diverse and connected world.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hinojosa is also anchor and executive producer of the PBS show \u201cAmerica By The Numbers\u201d and the digital video series \u201cHumanizing America.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among her many accolades are four Emmys, the John Chancellor Award, Studs Terkel Community Media Award, two Robert F. Kennedy Awards, Edward R. Murrow Award and Ruben Salazar Lifetime Achievement Award. Additionally, her alma mater Barnard College named her the inaugural Distinguished Journalist in Residence in 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Her Feb. 11 talk is part of this year’s Creative Intelligence series themed “Figuring Our Hope,” which was inspired by Wendell Berry\u2019s poem \u201cTestament.”   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It calls on us to draw on our available resources, including art and community, while we live through difficult times,” said Kremena Todorova, an English professor and Creative Intelligence director. “And it affirms the power to be found in human connections.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over the decades, the Kenan series has drawn such notables as Kurt Vonnegut, Salman Rushdie, Elie Wiesel and former U.S. Poet Laureate Joy Harjo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
