The Diversity Committee of the Lesley University Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences would like to invite you to join us for our next film event, Language of America on Monday, February 20, 2012, from 4:00 to 6:30PM in the University Hall Amphitheater at Lesley University. Language of America is a documentary film that takes viewers into the last surviving Indian sites and languages of New England. From its website: Language of America explores Indian language, philosophy, and community as never before. It shows how Indian words reveal an inherent connectedness between people, nature and spirit. The film bears witness to America's history of Indian human rights abuse, yet it inspires hope by promoting an understanding of diversity that accepts Native peoples inextricably shared history and destiny with their neighbors. The film will be followed by a guided discussion with the filmmaker, Ben Levine. It is free and open to the public.
