PEN American Center and The New School Present: Liao Yiwu, Philip Gourevitch, and Salman Rushdie
Poet, novelist, musician, and documentarian Liao Yiwu is one of China's most exciting and most censored writers. In his first U.S. appearance in nearly twenty years, Mr. Liao will be introduced by PEN World Festival founder and chair Salman Rushdie and interviewed by journalist Philip Gourevitch. The guest will read from his forthcoming book God Is Red: The Story of How Christianity Survived and Flourished in Communist China, and perform on xiao (Chinese flute), which he learned to play in prison.
THE NEW SCHOOL FOR PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT | http://www.newschool.edu/public-engagement
Liao Yiwu has been called the "Studs Terkel of China" for his vivid literary portraits of the lives of ordinary Chinese. He was refused permission to travel to New York for the PEN World Voices Festival of International Literature earlier this year, but Liao escaped to Berlin via the Vietnamese border last July 6. He had been imprisoned for four years in the 1990s for his epic poem "Massacre," a condemnation of the Chinese government's bloody suppression of the 1989 demonstration at Tiananmen Square. He has endured constant harassment since. Though his books are banned in China, he continues to write. PEN President Kwame Anthony Appiah notes, "As it gets harder for independent-minded writers to leave China, an opportunity like this to hear directly from a great Chinese writer is an increasingly precious thing."

American Center
The American Center is a high-rise tower in the Metro Detroit suburb of Southfield, Michigan. It was built in 1975 and stands at 26 stories, with one basement level, for a total of 27 floors.
The building's main use is that of a typical office tower. It also includes a parking garage and retail spaces. As with many modern architecture-based towers, it exterior is laden with golden glass.
The tower was originally built as the home for the American Motors Corporation; the company was later bought by the Chrysler Corporation; the building has since been purchased by Sun Communities and is managed by Redico Real Estate Development (REDICO). The tower is square in plan, with chamfered corners. The elevator core is unusual in that it is rotated 45 degrees relative to the tower's axis.
The building is located close to Interstate 696, M-10, and US 24, "Mixing Bowl." The American Center is separate from the nearby Southfield Town Center. In addition to Sun Communities, major tenants include Citizens Bank, Priority Health, Grant Thornton, UBS, The Bartech Group, WMYD and various law firms.

Roberto Saviano
Roberto Saviano (Italian: [roˈbɛrto saˈvjano]; born September 22, 1979) is an Italian writer and journalist.
In his writings, articles, television programs, and books he employs prose and news-reporting style to narrate the story of the Camorra (a powerful Neapolitan mafia-like organization), exposing its territory and business connections.
Since 2006, following the publication of his bestselling book Gomorrah (Gomorra in Italian), where he describes the clandestine particulars of the Camorra business, Saviano has been threatened by several Neapolitan "godfathers". The Italian Minister of the Interior has granted him a permanent police escort. Because of his courageous stance, he is considered a "national hero" by author-philosopher Umberto Eco. He lives at a secret location to avoid reprisal attacks.
Career
Saviano was born in Naples on September 22, 1979. His father was Catholic while his mother was Jewish. He grew up in the Naples suburb Caserta. He graduated in philosophy at the University of Naples Federico II. His writing is influenced by anti-fascist thinkers such as Giustino Fortunato, Gaetano Salvemini and conservative authors such as Ernst Jünger, Ezra Pound, Louis Ferdinand Celine, and Carl Schmitt.

Salman Rushdie
Sir Ahmad Salman Rushdie, (Kt.) FRSL (/sælˈmɑːn ˈrʊʃdi/;Kashmiri: अहमद सलमान रुशदी (Devanagari), احمد سلمان رشدی (Nastaʿlīq); born 19 June 1947) is a British Indian novelist and essayist. His second novel, Midnight's Children (1981), won the Booker Prize in 1981. Much of his fiction is set on the Indian subcontinent. He is said to combine magical realism with historical fiction; his work is concerned with the many connections, disruptions, and migrations between Eastern and Western civilizations.
His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the centre of a major controversy, provoking protests from Muslims in several countries. Death threats were made against him, including a fatwā calling for his assassination issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, on 14 February 1989, and as a result he was put under police protection by the British government.
Rushdie was elected a fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, Britain's senior literary organisation, in 1983. He was appointed Commandeur de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France in January 1999. In June 2007, Queen Elizabeth II knighted him for his services to literature. In 2008, The Times ranked him thirteenth on its list of the fifty greatest British writers since 1945.

Liao Yiwu has been called the "Studs Terkel of China" for his vivid literary portraits of the lives of ordinary Chinese. He was refused permission to travel to New York for the PEN World Voices Festival of International Literature earlier this year, but Liao escaped to Berlin via the Vietnamese border last July 6. He had been imprisoned for four years in the 1990s for his epic poem "Massacre," a condemnation of the Chinese government's bloody suppression of the 1989 demonstration at Tiananmen Square. He has endured constant harassment since. Though his books are banned in China, he continues to write. PEN President Kwame Anthony Appiah notes, "As it gets harder for independent-minded writers to leave China, an opportunity like this to hear directly from a great Chinese writer is an increasingly precious thing."

If you’d like to get around town easily but don’t want to rent a car, the Capital Bikeshare program will let you cruise around the city without wasting gas or getting stuck in traffic.
Check out the Watergate Hotel and Kennedy Center when you stop at Foggy Bottom, then move on to Georgetown, the oldest district in D.C. It’s filled with 18th-century buildings and, of course, the university itself. After a stop at the National Cathedral, make your way to the Smithsonian National Zoo, the perfect stop for the young and the young at heart.
If you’re feeling the need to channel your inner 007, go to the International Spy Museum, and learn about the covert operations and intelligence agencies that have shaped the world we live in. Of course, you can’t enjoy any Washington, D.C., tourism without admiring the White House, so make sure that’s on your list too.

Travel video about destination Mount Rushmore.
Set within the Black Hills in the state of South Dakota, is one of the most famous landmarks in the USA, the Mount Rushmore National Memorial. Four monumental portraits of the most famous American presidents have been carved into the granite and symbolize a kind of spectacular tribute to democracy.
Since their unveiling in 1941, the huge faces of George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln have created a good deal of interest. The area around Mount Rushmore is also most striking, as the Black Hills' mountain range is a masterpiece of nature.
Twenty-five km southwest of Mount Rushmore is another stone image that towers up from the landscape, the Crazy Horse Memorial. Created in 1947, it commemorates the famous chief of the Oglala Lakota, a native american indian tribe. Its dimensions are even larger than those of Mount Rushmore and when completed, it will be 195 metres long and 172 metres high!
But the Mount Rushmore area is far more than just a symbol of American history. It is also steeped in the rich culture and traditions of North America's native Indians.
Global Treasures - History's Most Protected Monuments - Heritage is our legacy from the past, what we live today, and what we pass on to future generations. Our cultural and natural heritage are both irreplaceable sources of life and inspiration. Places as unique and diverse as the wilds of East Africa's Serengeti, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and the Baroque cathedrals of Latin America make up our world's heritage. Join us as we explore one of these protected monuments.

Welcome to Houston, Texas, one of the largest cities in the United States.
Once an outpost in the Old West, Houston is now a down-to-earth metropolis, boasting a tremendous shipping and energy industry, as well as plenty of culture.
Kick off your Houston tour at Discovery Green, a 12-acre park tucked beneath the city’s skyscrapers. You’ll find public art and plenty of space to picnic or go for walks. Houstoners take pride in their various parks, museums, and open spaces, like the Houston Arboretum, where you can go birdwatching, learn about green living, and hike the trails to explore local wildlife.
Speaking of exploring, your Houston sightseeing should include a trip to the USS Texas., This battleship served in two World Wars and now stands guard as a museum on the Buffalo Bayou. Head over to the Gulf for a walk on the beach while you watch the sunset, then get ready to gear up for the evening with some delicious TexMex shared with the locals. After you lose yourself in a few rounds of line dancing to burn off all those fajitas, you’ll be wondering why you didn’t come to Houston earlier.

Come to Boston to discover a city with roots in both the past and future.
Classic Boston sightseeing begins with walking the Freedom Trail for a bird’s-eye view of the American Revolution, including Boston Common and “Old Ironsides,” the USS Constitution. Stop by some of the most prestigious colleges in the nation, including Harvard and Tufts University. Continue your Boston tour with a stop at Faneuil Hall, which has served as a marketplace since 1742, and check out a variety of shops and street performers.
No trip to Boston is complete without paying homage at Fenway Park, where the Red Sox have held court for over a century. Don’t forget to fuel up with food afterward; Boston boasts a variety of restaurants, ranging from fresh seafood to classic Italian and everything in between.

Santiago de Chile, a city of extremes, is surrounded by the world’s longest mountain range, driest desert, largest ocean and southernmost grassy plains. The cosmopolitan South American capital has the perfect mix of both historic and ultra-modern attractions.
The lively Plaza de Armas houses the divine Metropolitan Cathedral and the National History Museum. Santa Lucía Hill is the place where the city was founded by the Spanish in the 16th-century and the Chilean Museum of pre-Colombian Art shows what life was like here before colonial rule.
La Moneda Palace is the seat of government and the place of Augusto Pinochet’s 1973 military coup. The Museum of Memory and Human Rights documents the dictator’s repressive regime.
Santiago has many city parks. Parque Bicentenario is in Vitacura, while the sculptures of Parque de las Esculturas are in Providencia. Centrally located Parque Forestal, houses the Museum of Contemporary Art. Nearby is Centro Cultural Estación Mapocho, in a former train station.
Find colorful street art, craft shops and sidewalk cafés in Bellavista. From this neighborhood, you can access Cerro San Cristóbal to look back at Santiago one more time before exploring Chile’s many natural treasures.

Controversy Over Charlie Hebdo's PEN Award
"Being shocked is a part of democratic debate. Being shot is not." So said Gérard Biard, Editor-in-Chief of Charlie Hebdo at Monday night's PEN Literary Gala in New York City. Hosted by the PEN American Center at the Museum of Natural History, the PEN Literary Gala is an annual celebration of free speech. The night was not without its share of controversy. Charlie Hebdo's illustrations of the Prophet Muhammad have been particularly polarizing. For many Muslims, any depiction of Muhammad is considered sacrilegious. The magazine's illustrations raised complex questions about freedom of speech, religious intolerance and satire. A dozen people, including 10 journalists, were killed in an attack on the magazine's office in Paris on January 7. http://feeds.mashable.com/~r/Mashable/~3/lXG0IL0V0c...

"Being shocked is a part of democratic debate. Being shot is not."
So said Gérard Biard, Editor-in-Chief of Charlie Hebdo at Monday night's PEN Literary Gala in New York City. Hosted by the PEN American Center at the Museum of Natural History, the PEN Literary Gala is an annual celebration of free speech. The night was not without its share of controversy. Charlie Hebdo's illustrations of the Prophet Muhammad have been particularly polarizing. For many Muslims, any depiction of Muhammad is considered sacrilegious. The magazine's illustrations raised complex questions about freedom of speech, religious intolerance and satire.
A dozen people, including 10 journalists, were killed in an attack on the magazine's office in Paris on January 7.
