On March 19, St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Sylvester Brown, Jr. will present the Department of Communication’s 13th Annual Michael Davis Lecture at noon in Rose Theatre.

Brown was born and raised in St. Louis. Before he took his current position with the Post-Dispatch, he and his wife published Take Five Magazine, an investigative publication, for 15 years. Brown has been a guest on many TV and radio programs, including shows produced by NPR and PRI.

The Michael Davis Lecture recognizes the contributions of African-Americans in the media. The event also honors the late Michael Davis, a mass communications student at Southeast who died as a result of a hazing incident.
