Peace Jam will host Adolfo Pérez Esquivel, the recipient of the 1980 Nobel Peace Prize, for his efforts working towards true democracy and human rights in Argentina and throughout Latin America.

In 1977, he himself was “disappeared," imprisoned and tortured by the military government for 14 months. He was released after being named Amnesty International’s Political Prisoner of the Year in 1978, and continues to lead human rights efforts throughout Latin America and abroad. There is a $10 suggested donation ($5 for students) at the door. The event will include a question and answer session,
