Contributed Western Illinois University English professor Everett Hamner will deliver the 20th-annual John Hallwas Liberal Arts Lecture this afternoon at 4 p.m. in the WIU-QC Riverfront Hall, room 111. Hamer's lecture is titled 'Welcome to Spaceship Earth: Reimagining Climate Action via Popular Culture," and will dive in to how stories we tell and hear can either weaken or strengthen our responses to measurable physical realities. Hamner aims to challenge both academic and nonacademic audiences toward broad, urgent climate action through a wide range of liberal arts traditions.
