Presentations

I have really appreciated the excellent presentations given by the students in our class.  People have come well-prepared, with a great deal of information.  Some people turn out to be amazing public speakers as well.  Everybody has been articulate.

The videos have been extremely helpful, too.  Charles's video on Amnesty International made me so proud to be an AI member.  Lin's video was shown with the purpose of exposing the fact that the U.S. had supplied Iraq with uniforms and other materials -- before declaring war on Iraq in 2001.  Juliana showed just enough to make us aware of the purposes and reality of torture of prisoners.


Three people have talked about how Marjane's family dealt with the issue of the veil.  Thank you all for being culturally sensitive.

 Thank you to everybody -- what a great class!
