An Evening with Dr. Bernard Lafayette

Recently, there have been growing interest in the Bay Area around Kingian Nonviolence.  Since January of this year, we have held 13 two-day workshops for well over 350 people in the Bay Area alone!

This includes five workshops inside the San Bruno County Jail and workshops for Oakland youth.  We have partnered with many important Bay Area communities, including theEast Bay Meditation Center, theOakland Peace Center,BAY-Peace,Youth Spirit Artworks,Youth Alive, various Occupy communities and more.

We are honored to continue to work to fulfill our mission, and help Dr. Bernard Lafayette help fulfill his promise to Coretta Scott King: to continue to spread Dr. King’s philosophy with the highest integrity.

We are also excited to announce that Dr. Lafayette will finally be coming to the Bay Area!!!  Please join us on the eve of the International Day of Peace for this exciting event.

UPDATE: Program will also feature performances from local youth who have attended a Kingian Nonviolence workshop, and a video presentation of PPWN’s national work with youth.

Co-Sponsors of this event include: YES!, Youth Spirit Artworks, BAY-Peace, PeaceWorkers US, the Church for the Fellowship of All Peoples, and EndBigBanks.org.  If your organization is interested in becoming a co-sponsor ($50 fee), please send an email to [email protected].
