ONEONTA, N.Y. -- Author and journalist Craig Timberg will appear at the SUNY College at Oneonta to discuss his book project Dr. Livingstone's Children: Why We Are Losing the War on AIDS, and How to Win at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, March 31, in the Center for Multicultural Experiences in Lee Hall. Admission to the event is complimentary, and members of the community are invited to attend.
A resident of Cooperstown, Craig Timberg spent four years covering Africa as Johannesburg bureau chief for The Washington Post. He has also worked for The Valley News, The Concord Monitor, and The Baltimore Sun.
The book on which he is working, Dr. Livingstone's Children, argues that the AIDS epidemic grew from Western colonial exploitation of Africa and that the billions of dollars in attempted interventions are ineffective because they neglect the underlying sexual and cultural factors driving the epidemic.
Mr. Timberg will speak about his book, but he will also entertain questions on African themes or journalism in general.
