Thursday March 26, 2015 - “More Than a Protest Novel” Panel in Harlem

HOLD THE DATE FOR OUR UPCOMING EVENT, “More Than a Protest Novel,” a thought-provoking anti-violence panel that will take place on Thursday, 3/26 at 8:00 p.m. at Land Yoga, in Harlem.

From moderator, Rev. Alfonso Wyatt, to featured panelists, the event will showcase some of New York City’s top minds when it comes to effectively addressing gun violence—and doing so in a “novel” way. The framework for the panel is the first book in Petra Lewis' trilogy, The Sons and Daughters of Ham, Book I: A Requiem, which examines a family in the aftermath of violence.

Panelists include:
• A.T. Mitchell, founder of Man Up! in East New York, Brooklyn
• Iesha Sekou, founder of Street Corner Resources, Harlem
• Allen James, program manager, S.O.S. (Save Our Streets) Crown Heights, Crown Heights Community Mediation Center, Brooklyn
• Kathleen Horan, WNYC public radio reporter who, among other things, did the series “In Harm’s Way, ” which—in 2013—memorialized the individual lives of New York City' kids killed by gunfire

The evening will take a look at personal experiences with violence, the current anti-violence space, real stats on homicide rates, and policy initiatives and new/innovative solutions to address the violence (including prayer)—as well as how some of this ties in to the Eric Garner and Michael Brown cases and their outcomes, which ignited protests globally. Reception to follow. HOLD THE DATE—you don’t want to miss this one! More details to come
