Friends and colleagues:  Attached is a flyer for a presentation by Dr. Erika Chenowith and an opportunity for our continued learning about the successful use of non-violence.  Please check out this flyer and plan to attend.  Perhaps we can carpool.  This will be time very well spent.  I plan to attend and hope you will join me.
