Col. Wright is the senior-most U.S. official to publicly resign in protest of the Iraq War. After nearly 20 years of service with the State Department, Wright resigned citing the lack of U.N. support for the Iraq invasion, the lack of effort in Israel-Palestine and North Korea, and the threat to liberties in the U.S. as reasons for her departure. Since then, she has worked tirelessly to end the occupation of Iraq and bring U.S. soldiers home.
Col. Wright is the second speaker in the DPC Summer Lecture Series. Reception at 6:00, Dinner at 7:00 and Lecture at 8:00 p.m. For tickets, go to http://dallaspeacecenter.org/SumDin/2008/Tickets.
