Author, Pulitzer Center Grantee To Discuss Conflict, Geopolitics in the Horn of Africa at Huston-Tillotson University

Pulitzer Center grantee and author of The Good Death: An Exploration of Dying in America, Ann Neumann, will visit Huston-Tillotson University on October 28, 2024. She will speak in classes, meet with students, and deliver a presentation on her career and Pulitzer Center work.

Neumann reported from Egypt and Ethiopia with Pulitzer Center support. Her project Who Owns the Nile? Ethiopia's War Against Itself examines the country’s geopolitical ambitions, which may be jeopardized by internal conflict between the minority Tigrayan population and president Abiy Ahmed’s government. Neumann published “Hydropower” in The Baffler and “Falling Like Leaves: The War in Ethiopia and its Crimes Against Civilians” in Harper’s Magazine. Neumann’s work has also appeared in The Guardian and The New York Times.
