Event Description

This evening dialogue explores the million‐dollar
question: how can we make the world a better place?
We examine what turns conservatives into
progressives and what inspires people to action. We
look at history to see what people have done to
actually make positive change happen. We consider
strategic action we each can take to turn this ship
around. A lecture will be followed by pair and group
discussion.

Jessie Rain Ann Smith has run popular education courses and workshops on economic and social justice for over 15 years. She has been teaching Latin American Studies at Langara College since 2001.

Sponsored by Langara College Continuing Studies. Offered as part of Langara's Summer School on Building Community.
