About

Tucson Humanities Festival 2017: Resistance & Revolution, a series of topical lectures, panel discussions and events, including noteworthy guests, presented by the UA College of Humanities. Dramatic shifts in human history tend to spring from small acts of resistance and revolution. Moments of principled defiance, quiet dissent and thundering discord create profound change: toppled governments, religious schisms and abrupt disruptions in the ways we live. What leads to those movements and those cultural breaking points? What comes after? What can the acts of resistance and revolution in the past reveal about the modern world?
