UO Libraries and Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics are excited to host the Rep. Peter DeFazio Annual Lecture delivered by Jamelle Bouie, an American columnist for The New York Times who writes about politics and the law through the lens of American political history.

The DeFazio Annual Lecture honors UO alumnus and retired US Representative Peter DeFazio and promotes public knowledge of politics, governance, civic engagement, and social history by spotlighting esteemed speakers with expertise in the policy areas that DeFazio advanced during his congressional career. The lecture series is made possible through partnership with the UO’s Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics and by generous support from the Coquille Indian Tribe. 

This event is free and open to the community. A livestream will be available for those who can't join in person.
