We will be hosting national and international speakers on the recent upsurges in popular activism, especially of women, and civil disobedience in Algeria, Sudan, Egypt, Tunisia, Iraq, Lebanon, and Iran. This will be a wonderful opportunity to catch up on recent developments in parts of the world that often don't receive enough careful analysis and reflection.
