[Quaker] Movie Screening: THE SUN BEHIND THE CLOUDS

[Syma Sheikh]

Hello Everyone,

On Thursday, Jan 30th, Spiritual Life Office of Hampshire College has  
organized a movie screening of "THE SUN BEHIND THE CLOUDS.

A provocative and potent look at the Dalai Lama's ceaseless struggle  
for justice and recognition for the Tibetan people, The Sun Behind the  
Clouds focuses on the pivotal and particularly tumultuous events of  
2008.   From Buddhist monks' protests in Lhasa on the 50th anniversary  
of the Chinese invasion and the four-month march of exiled Tibetans  
through India to the Tibetan border, the film uncovers the growing  
rifts between younger Tibetans and their most respected spiritual  
leader. While His Holiness advocates for political autonomy within  
China rather than secession from it, a younger generation within Tibet  
has grown impatient and begun to chart a more confrontational course.

Hope to see all of you there!

Duas.
