Peace starts within each one of us.

Please join us for a session of Sit for Peace (which is timely considering all the news around North Korea, and now Boston) and a documentary screening.

We've been a fan of Brazilian-Korean director and activist, Iara Lee (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iara_Lee) for quite some time. Last year we screened her documentary, Cultures of Resistance. (http://www.onecirclecommunity.org/event-gallery/screening-of-documentary-cultures-of-resistance/) This month we will screen her documentary The Suffering Grasses (http://www.culturesofresistance.org/suffering-grasses#synopsis).

Saturday Schedule

10-10:50am: Sit for Peace

Since this is a "Sit for Peace" session, we will leave the dharma room open and you may drop-in at any time and take breaks as you wish (please move quietly so that you do not disturb those who are sitting).

We will also set up a "Peace Board" where we invite you to leave a message or even just a single word about how you and our OCC community can bring more kindness and peace into this world.

10:50am - 11am: Short intro about the documentary and director

11- 12pm: Documentary Screening- The Suffering Grasses

12pm-12:30pm: Q&A with Production Manager, Abdul Tahhan via Skype

Apologies for cross posting.
