The Politics of Race, Gender, and Economics in the 2008 U.S. Presidential Race. With award-winning journalist and bestselling author, Amy Goodman:
A few short weeks after both major parties officially kick off the presidential race for the White House, Amy Goodman - host of the acclaimed radio show Democracy Now! - will offer her thoughts on what the election means for women, people of color, and poor people in this country and internationally. Copies of Goodman's books will be available for purchase.
Amy Goodman has been awarded numerous recognitions and honors from the Associated Press, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, United Press International, and she is a recipient of the Robert F. Kennedy Prize for International Reporting. Goodman has interviewed heads of state, Nobel laureates and hundreds of ordinary people involved in history-making events.

The Jane Addams Hull-House Museum is part of UIC College of Architecture and the Arts and serves as a dynamic memorial to social reformer and Nobel Peace Prize recipient Jane Addams (1860-1935) and other resident social reformers whose work influenced the lives of their immigrant neighbors as well as national and international public policy. The Museum's exhibits and public programs preserves and develops the original Hull-House site for the continuation of the historic settlement house vision, linking research, education, and social engagement.
