Week Two, February 9: 7:30 pm: Chapter One, pt 2 (pgs. 40-70)

We will continue the conversations begun last week about rights, suffering and justice, and also look at:

1. What does "citizenship" mean in a globalized world?  
2. Mona's death "changed everything" for Akhavan. She "spoke truth to power" at 16 years old. What lessons are drawn from her story?  
3. What is it that draws humans to pursue justice for others?  
4. The title of this chapter is, "The Knowledge of Suffering." What does it mean to "suffer"? How do we choose which (if any) suffering to work towards alleviating? At what cost?

And whatever other questions/comments you bring to the session with you!

See you there, next Friday evening at 7:30pm.
