Vince Beiser Speaks on Critical Minerals at University of Missouri

 

Pulitzer Center grantee Vince Beiser will visit the University of Missouri on Thursday, April 17, 2025 to present his reporting on critical materials to journalism students, in addition to reflecting on his career in the capstone journalism course.

His latest book, Power Metal: The Race for the Resources That Will Shape the Future is an investigation into how the materials we need for digital technology and renewable energy are causing environmental havoc, political upheaval, mayhem and murder—and how we can do better. Beiser is an award-winning journalist and author who has reported from over 100 countries, states, provinces, kingdoms, occupied territories, no man’s lands, and disaster zones.
