| 10:00 AM - 11:30 AM | Journalist as Witness and Historian with Ed Morales
Ed Morales of the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism and Columbia University Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race will discuss his newest book Fantasy Island: Colonialism, Exploitation, And The Betrayal of Puerto Rico.
LOCATION: Lehman Multimedia Center/ Carman Hall Studio C (downstairs)
Ed Morales is a veteran journalist whose work has appeared in The New York Times, Newsday, The Village Voice, The Miami Herald, Rolling Stone, the Guardian, The Nation and the Los Angeles Times.
Drawing on a deep body of knowledge accrued over decades of critical reporting on the experience of Puerto Ricans in New York and the relationship between the island and the U.S., Mr. Morales' latest book, Fantasy Island: Colonialism, Exploitation, And The Betrayal of Puerto Rico tells an up to the minute story with roots 100 years old.
Want to understand what the summer's dancing protests against Puerto Rican Governor Ricky Rosselló were all about? Wonder how the Trump administration's response to Hurricane Maria fits into history? Confused about what's true and who tells the truth? Curious how reporters' own politics and viewpoints effect what they see and say? Want to understand reporters' role in creating the first draft of history? Come to this conversation.

| 10:00 AM - 4:00 PM | The New York Latin American Art Triennial 2019: Progressive Transition
Progressive Transition explores the action and effect of moving from one state to another. More broadly, the project shows the drive towards transformation in the arts. The artists’ need to “feel part of something” that can likewise be recognized and defined by others will be explored within the exhibition. The work on view represents the artistic transition seen against a landscape of societal progress. The project highlights cultural exchange and, at its core, examines the implications of transition on an evolving Latin American culture.
