United and Divided We Stand: Insights from Crossing America with Judy Woodruff

Lecture

What’s Happening?

Join Judy Woodruff, PBS Senior Correspondent and former NewsHour anchor, as she delivers the inaugural Patty Isacson Sabee Fellow lecture at Planet Word. Judy will explore media, democracy, and the power of words to shape our nation’s future.

Judy’s reporting over a five-decade career demonstrates the critical importance of listening to others, reflecting on their words, and building community. Her work reflects how a careful adherence to truthful journalism builds an informed citizenry and strengthens democracy. The tenor of the 2024 election proves this approach is more urgent than ever.

Over the past 20 months, Judy has journeyed across America, uncovering powerful stories of political division and highlighting work to bridge our differences. Her reporting reveals the deep-seated roots of our nation’s polarization: rural vs. urban, economic disparity, mistrust of government, and anxieties about demographic change.

Don’t miss Judy’s insights on navigating these divisions to tackle America’s most pressing public policy challenges. After the lecture, engage directly with Judy in a dynamic Q&A session.
