At a moment when free expression and the press are under fierce attack, Harper’s Magazine is proud to inaugurate the James C. Goodale First Amendment Award.
Named for legendary First Amendment attorney James C. Goodale, who led the New York Times to victory in the landmark 1971 Pentagon Papers case, this new award honors those who exemplify courage, integrity, and a steadfast commitment to the free exchange of ideas.
Goodale will personally present the inaugural award to A. G. Sulzberger, the publisher of the New York Times, in recognition of his leadership in defending the freedom of the press and championing the truth in an era of misinformation and polarization.
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2025 AT SIX O'CLOCK IN THE EVENING, 583 PARK AVENUE, NEW YORK CITY
