Forthcoming Lecture at University of Kentucky

I’ve been honored by being asked to give the first of three addresses in this year’s annual anthropology colloquium at the University of Kentucky.

My talk is entitled “Egyptian Youth in Urban and Virtual Spaces” and will be held Oct. 21 at 4 pm in the Student Center.

The colloquium theme is “Youth and Urban Spaces in the Middle East.” I’m the warm-up act; after me Sholeh Sharokhi (Butler University) will speak in January and Jessica Winegar (Northwestern Univ) will come in April.

Here’s a University of Kentucky news announcement about the talk: Visiting Professor Gives Youthful View of Egyptian Uprisings.

And here’s an article in the Kentucky Kernel: Series focuses on Egyptian Youth, mass media

And here’s an announcement in the Indiana University Press newsletter.
