They will describe the frightening situations in North Africa as they really are. We hear reporters speak of slavery as it is in Africa today and of the deaths caused by the armed forces of one ethnic group killing the ordinary people of another ethnic group, but the panel will speak not as reporters but as people who have lived in the societies where these horrors were taking place. After the presentation the panel will answer questions from the audience and speak about what can be done to remedy the situations. more info
