Join NYSEAN for a talk by Matt Easton, author of a narrative nonfiction account of Munir, one of Indonesia's foremost human rights defenders, who was murdered by arsenic poisoning in 2004 on a flight from Indonesia to the Netherlands. The killers were linked to Indonesian intelligence, and the book looks at the plot, the actors, and the role Munir played in trying to hold senior government officials accountable for human rights violations. Easton will be in conversation with Sidney Jones, senior advisor with the Jakarta-based Institute for Policy Analysis of Conflict who also teaches at New York University’s International Relations Program.
