War vs. Diplomacy: Uncovering the Real Debate in Washington
March 6, 2014

Public outcry stopped U.S. intervention in the Syrian civil war and has so far stopped increased sanctions on Iran. This presentation by Phyllis Bennis will expose how surprised Washington is about public opposition to wars and violence. Her presentation will focus on how to get what we want: more diplomacy to solve problems and an end to demonizing negotiations. She will show that instead of rushing to war, we can choose to make diplomacy work. Join CALC, the Lane Peace Center, WAND, and Veterans for Peace at the Lane Community College Downtown Campus. The event is free and open to the public. Donations to help cover the cost of the event will be accepted at the door.
