Later this afternoon, join me, @AhmedNajiTW, Julie Trebault of @AtRiskArtists, in a conversation with @karimabennoune at @UMich, Ann Arbor, where we speak of defending artistic freedom after the attack on #SalmanRushdie. 
Also, today, in Germany (I wish I could be at two places at the same time, like a Rushdie character!) my friend @meenakandasamy gets honored by @PEN_Deutschland:
My understanding is that the ceremony in Germany and our event at Ann Arbor will both be available online, or through a recording later.
