On March 5, the Institute will host a panel discussion on “Ten Years after the Toppling: The Fall of Iraq, the Media, and US Intervention.” The discussion will feature:
• Peter Maass, award-winning author and journalist, who wrote about the toppling of the statue of Saddam Hussein in Firdos Square and the US military’s entrance into Baghdad in 2003 for The New Yorker
• Gary Knight, award-winning photojournalist and co-founder of VII, who covered the war in Iraq as a non-embedded journalist and who photographed the toppling of the statue on April 9, 2003
In May 2012, the students from the Program for Narrative and Documentary Practice traveled to Burma to explore daily life in the country’s biggest city, Yangon, as the culminating workshop of the yearlong course.
