Caltech Event: A Force More Powerful

Amnesty International Group 22 members are looking forward to the Social Activism Speaker Series coming up on Thursday, May 11 at 8:00 pm, Beckman Institute Auditorium, Caltech. (The event is free and open to the public). The speaker will be Jack DuVall, founding Director of the International Center on Nonviolent Conflict. He was the Executive Producer of the two-part Emmy-nominated PBS television series, A Force More Powerful, and co-author of the companion book of the same name. The International Center on Nonviolent Conflict's latest project is a computer game which I have blogged about previously, that teaches nonviolent tactics in overcoming oppression. Here's an NPR report on the game [Link].

I'm looking forward to learning more! PS: Look for Amnesty members at the table outside!
