Progressive American Debates Right-Wing Wrongs: Entertain and Educate with America's Leading Political Commentators
Ideal Use: Debates hot topics in the news, human rights, media bias, racism and politics programs
If debates on the hottest topics are what motivate your campus to turn out, you'll want to bring T.J. Walker who will even provide a leading conservative as an opponent. Some of the topics to be debated include: "impeach or move on?" "media bias: liberal or conservative?" "abolish the IRS?" "school vouchers?" "legalize drugs?" and "topics from the headlines." As president of Progressive America, a media organization devoted to countering right wing propaganda on the airwaves, Walker is seen frequently on MSNBC and the Fox News Channel.
Walker is also the author of The Promise Keeper Chronicles, which documents how the religious movement's similarities to a cult is overlooked by the mainstream media. In addition to being able to debate or lecture on the Promise Keepers and other current topics, Walker can also lead workshops on improving effective use of the media including "How Students Can Get on Any Talk Show, Anytime, Anywhere."
