Arun Gandhi
"Gandhi and Nonviolence: Relevance for the 21st Century".

The Lane Peace Center is proud to bring Arun Gandhi to the Lane Community College Main Campus Center for Meeting and Learning the evening of February 16, 2017 from 7:00 - 8:30 pm. His talk is entitled "Gandhi and Nonviolence: Relevance for the 21st Century".

Following in the footsteps of his legendary grandfather Mohandas Gandhi, Arun Gandhi promotes nonviolence as the path to personal awareness and social change. With turmoil and conflict rising at home and abroad, our society needs Dr. Gandhi's crucial understanding and essential messages of constructive encouragement.

Arun Gandhi is the Founder of the Gandhi Worldwide Education Institute and M.K. Gandhi Worldwide Education Institute. He is the author of Grandfather Gandhi; A Patch of White; M.K. Gandhi's Wit & Wisdom; the bestseller Legacy of Love: My Education in the Path of Nonviolence; and co-author of The Search for a Nonviolent Future: A Promise of Peace for Ourselves, Our Families, and Our World. He is also the co-creator of the Gandhi Legacy Tour of India.

[DisOrient Girl Logo]

DisOrient is a social justice film festival dedicated to deconstructing the media stereotypes of Asian and Pacific Islander Americans as "Orientals."  We believe in the power of film-as-art to educate, heal and improve the lives of people by giving voice to their experiences.

Started in 2006 by artists, educators, and activists, DisOrient is a grassroots and volunteer-run film festival committed to presenting honest portrayals of the diversity of the Asian and Pacific Islander American experience.  When selecting new and exciting films for our festival, we use the W.E.B. DuBois standard of "for us, by us, or about us."
