SUMMARY:November 12 | The Heartland at a Crossroads: Bold Voices on America’s Rural Future
DESCRIPTION:Pulitzer Prize winner Art Cullen has established himself as an essential witness to the transformation of rural America\, thanks to his unique perspective as editor of The Storm Lake Times. His new book\, We Crapped In Our Nests: Notes From the Edge of the World\, offers an unflinching examination of how we’ve degraded our environment and communities\, along with his vision for rural America’s future. \nCullen will be joined in conversation with Chris Jones\, President of the Driftless Water Defenders and author of The Swine Republic. They will discuss topics including corporate agricultural dominance\, water quality protection\, rural community transformation\, immigration and rural vitality\, and more. \nThe event will include opening remarks from Senator Tom Harkin (retired).
