Chicago, IL, Apr. 19 (PRWEB) William Rodriguez, renowned world-wide as a 9/11 rescue hero and media personality, will be the featured speaker for the 9/11 Midwest Speaking Tour today through Saturday. Rodriguez saved countless lives on 9/11, and sprinted out of the building to dive under a fire truck as the Tower came down. He has electrified audiences in Europe, Asia, and South America with his message of heroism and uncompromising truth. Hear him live and in person on the weekend of April 19th - 21st, 2007.

Satirist Kevin Barrett, famed for his ready wit, is the embattled U. of Wisconsin professor whom Republican politicians and talk show hosts have repeatedly attacked for daring to say what he thinks about the 9/11 conspiracy. His fight for academic freedom brought him national prominence on CNN last November, as well as on Fox TV News, where he crossed swords with Sean Hannity and Bill O'Reilly.

Barrett writes his tragicomic story in his latest book -- "Why did a fairly normal Midwestern kid end up converting to Islam and launching an all-out, balls-to-the-wall truth jihad?" … his uphill fight to keep both his freedom of thought and his job, teaching a course on Islam … salted throughout with his special brand of irrepressible humor. More about this one-of-a-kind work at http://www.mujca.com/openletter.htm .

"Truth Jihad: My Epic Struggle Against the 9/11 Big Lie" was released by Progressive Press on April 11th to a flurry of rave reviews, see http://www.waronfreedom.org/mujca/tj-reviews.html. Barrett is also co-editor of "9/11 and American Empire, Christians, Jews and Muslims Speak Out," recently released by Interlink Books. He will autograph copies of his books during the tour.
