Velvet Revolution Film Screening and Discussion

Thursday, November 21
6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m.

It took only less than a month in November 1989 for the so-called Velvet Revolution in Prague to force the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia to relinquish its power, allow the single-party state to collapse and transform Václav Havel from a dissident playwright into the President of a democratic Czechoslovakia. Join us for a film and conversation to learn how this incredible nonviolent change happened.
