PEN: WikiLeaks

Where: The Cooper Union, Great Hall, 7 E. 7th St. , New York City

All interesting conversation begins after the dinner-hour, and the WikiLeaks roundtable, which starts promptly at 9:15 p.m., is no exception. Spend the best part of the evening at one of the most anticipated (and controversial) events of the Festival with a panel of experts—the Human Rights Project’s Tom Keenan, media theorist Geert Lovink, Henry R. Luce Professor of Democracy Ian Buruma, and policy analyst David Rieff—contemplating the legal and moral ramifications of making classified information accessible to the public.

With Thomas Keenan, Geert Lovink, Ian Buruma, and David Rieff

Tickets: $15/$10 PEN Members, students with valid ID. Call (866) 811-4111 or visit ovationtix.com Note: Purchase tickets to both Cooper Union events Thursday night for $20/$15 PEN Members, students.
