Wonderland is about the past and the future, about dissolution and transition, about how historical narratives can be found in neglected places. Using the site of the old Wonderland Amusement Park (now a T station and the last stop on the blue line) as a jumping off point, students in the fall semester course of the Program for Narrative and Documentary Practice of the Institute for Global Leadership explore places many usually drive by but rarely stop to see.
Join the Tufts New Initiative for Middle Eastern Peace on 2/22 at 7pm in Barnum 104 to hear Iranian-American journalist Yeganeh Rezaian discuss freedom of the press in Iran and U.S.-Iranian relations under Trump. Yeganeh covered Iranian political, social and economic news from 2009-2014 until her arrest in 2014, along with her husband, on unspecified charges. Though Yeganeh was released from jail 10 weeks after her arrest, her husband remained imprisoned for 543 days.
