Dear peaceful and just staff & faculty:
Do you think we have any room in our consciousness this week, given all
that is happening *locally*, to consider women's perspectives on Middle
East peace?
Apologies to those of you receiving this invitation multiple
times--consider it a strong indication of how much your presence is
needed and requested!
Please consider joining in this discussion/video viewing this Thursday,
especially if you were unable to make the 2 in-person panel
presentations in April.
