Their documentaries — “Food Evolution\,” which resets the GMO debate\, and “Shot in the Arm\,” begun in 2019 as measles resurged and transformed by COVID-19 — show how narrative can rescue facts from the fog of controversy and rekindle public trust in science. The pair will close the Chautauqua Lecture Series week dedicated to “Breaking the News: Charting a New Media Landscape” with a conversation on trust and media literacy\, with lessons and tips on how to be a good consumer of information and news. \nNeil deGrasse Tyson is an astrophysicist and the director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History\, where he has served since 1996. Collaborating with Scott Hamilton Kennedy of Black Valley Films\, Tyson is the executive producer of “Shot in the Arm” and narrator of “Food Evolution.” \nHe is the author of 19 books\, including the New York Times bestsellers Starry Messenger: Cosmic Perspectives on Civilization and Astrophysics for People in a Hurry. His latest work\, Just Visiting This Planet\, was released in October 2025. \nTyson is the two-time host of the beloved TV series “Cosmos” — rebooting the original 1980 series hosted by Carl Sagan. He is also the host and cofounder of the popular Emmy-nominated podcast “StarTalk\,” which combines science\, humor\, and pop culture. 2026 marks the 17th anniversary of “StarTalk.” \nTyson is a recipient of 28 honorary degrees\, the Public Welfare Medal from the National Academy of Sciences\, and the Distinguished Public Service Medal from NASA. Asteroid 13123 Tyson is named in his honor. He lives in New York City. \nScott Hamilton Kennedy is an Academy Award–nominated filmmaker\, director\, journalist and educator. He founded the production company\, Black Valley Films. In addition to “Shot in the Arm” and “Food Evolution\,” Kennedy’s other work includes the Oscar-nominated documentary “The Garden\,” the Independent Spirit–nominated “OT: Our Town” and the fan-favorite “Fame High.” \nWith “Food Evolution” and “Shot in the Arm\,” Kennedy focused on the collision between scientific evidence and public perception\, beginning his collaboration with Tyson. “Food Evolution” mapped the early contours of science denialism around food\, while “Shot in the Arm” captured vaccine hesitancy and the social fractures revealed by COVID-19. Together\, the films anticipated the rise of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement. The filmmaker Kennedy’s work continues this trajectory with “Toxic\,” investigating the machinery of disinformation\, and “A More Perfect Union\,” a civic-literacy initiative designed to help audiences navigate the information ecosystem and rebuild trust. Kennedy approaches all his work with the belief that storytelling is a public service—one of humanity’s most powerful tools for understanding and repairing the world.

As he recounts in Unabridged\, he discovered the history and fascinating subculture of the dictionary and of those who curate and revere “one of the most basic features of our collective humanity.” \nFatsis reveals the little-known story of how the brothers George and Charles Merriam acquired Noah Webster’s original American dictionary and reshaped the business of language forever. Merriam-Webster became America’s most successful and enduring compendium of words\, withstanding intense competition and cultural controversies—only to be threatened by the power of Google and artificial intelligence today. \nDelving into Merriam’s legendary archives and parsing its arcane rules\, Fatsis learns the painstaking precision required for writing good definitions. He examines how the dictionary has handled the most explosive slurs and the revolutionary change in pronouns. Fatsis demonstrates how words are weaponized in our polarized political culture—from liberal to woke to DEI—and\, in a time of insurrections and pandemics\, how they can be a literal matter of life and death. Along the way\, he manages to write a few definitions that crack the code and are enshrined in the pixelated dictionary. \nUnabridged takes readers to the heart of an industry in flux\, celebrating as it does the sheer thrill and wonder of words. \nStefan Fatsis is the author of Unabridged: The Thrill of (and Threat to) the Modern Dictionary\, published in October by Grove Atlantic\, and three other books: the New York Times bestseller Word Freak\, about the world of competitive Scrabble; A Few Seconds of Panic\, about life in the NFL; and Wild and Outside\, about minor league baseball. In four decades as a journalist\, Fatsis has written and talked for Slate\, The Wall Street Journal\, NPR\, The New York Times\, The Atlantic\, ESPN\, Sports Illustrated\, and many other outlets. He lives in Washington\, D.C.

Perhaps the most recognizable ambassador for New Orleans music working today\, Shorty has spent his entire life not only carrying the torch for Crescent City culture\, but also propelling it forward into the 21st century with his ecstatic live performances and intoxicating blend of rock\, funk\, soul\, jazz\, blues\, hip-hop\, and Caribbean influences.  \nBorn Troy Andrews\, Shorty made his first appearance at New Orleans’ iconic Jazz Fest at the age of four\, when he took the stage for an impromptu performance with Bo Diddley. By six\, he was heading up his own brass band\, and by his early twenties\, he’d released the first in a string of critically acclaimed\, chart-topping albums that would lead to performances everywhere from the White House and the Grammy Awards to Madison Square Garden and the 2025 Super Bowl. Along the way\, Shorty would tour with artists as diverse as Jeff Beck and the Red Hot Chili Peppers; play Coachella\, Bonnaroo\, Lollapalooza\, the Roots Picnic\, and countless other festivals; perform alongside Juvenile on his instantly legendary NPR Tiny Desk Concert; earn his first Grammy Award; appear on The Tonight Show\, The Late Show\, Conan\, Jimmy Kimmel Live!\, Good Morning America\, Today\, CNN\, HBO’s Treme\, and even an episode of The Simpsons; and collaborate with an eclectic mix of stars including Pharrell\, Bruno Mars\, Mark Ronson\, Jon Batiste\, Lenny Kravitz\, Foo Fighters\, ZHU\, Zac Brown\, Normani and Ringo Starr.  URL:https://www.chq.org/event/trombone-shorty-orleans-avenue/ LOCATION:Amphitheater\, Amphitheater CATEGORIES:Chautauqua Institution Program,Week Two (July 4–11),Weekly Themes,Popular Entertainment & Concerts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.chq.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Trombone-Shorty-3T3A3071-HI_RES.jpg END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
