Please join us this Wednesday, March 24th for a very special event. The Colorado Coalition for Genocide Awareness and Action welcomes guest speaker, Francis Bok, an escaped slave from the Sudan, to speak about his experience.

Included will be a panel discussion focusing on three different slaveries throughout history: the Jewish exodus, the African slave trade, and modern-day slavery in Darfur. Speakers will include: Francis Bok, Barbara Shannon-Banister, Rabbi Selwyn Franklin, and Pastor Heidi McGinness.

The event will be held on March 24th, 2010 from 7:00 - 9:00 pm in Sturm Hall, Room 281 (Lindsay Auditorium) at the University of Denver, 2000 East Asbury Avenue.
