Greetings in the cause of peace and social justice,
I am happy to announce four amazing events (listed below) as part of the Human Rights Week in Chapel Hill and Carrboro. Please join us in answering the call of these young people to work for social change in our community by attending at least one of the following events. Much of this work is the culmination of a semester long exploration of Human Rights by CHHS, ECHHS, and CHS students who participate in the Scene + Heard Youth Arts Collective workshops every Saturday. I am blessed to lead students in such an honest and open artistic investigation of social issues, and I am hopeful that you will come share the process with us! Also, feel free to forward this far and wide.
PEACE,
