DETROIT (AP) - Nobel Prize-winning American human rights activist Jody Williams will speak in Detroit this weekend as part of a lecture series.
Williams gives the Max Mark-Cranbrook Peace Lecture on Sunday at the 2017 Peacemaker Awards. It’s being hosted by Wayne State University’s Center for Peace and Conflict Studies and First Unitarian Universalist Church, and will be held at the church.
Williams is also set to receive the center’s Global Peacemaker Award. She shared the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of her role pursuing the treaty that outlawed land mines that year.
The event is free and open to the public.
