THE COMMUNITY CHURCH OF BOSTON
SUNDAY SPEAKERS FORUM presents...

Sunday, Deecmber 7, 2008 at 12:00pm

Join us in Celebration!
2008 Sacco & Vanzetti Social Justice Award Ceremony
Presented to JIM HARNEY

Jim Harney lived with the poor of El Salvador; he lived with the Communities
of Population in Resistance in Guatemala; he travelled to Acteal, Chiapas,
Mexico to interview survivors of the 1997 massacre; he's travelled to
Argentina, Colombia, Iraq and elsewhere to witness and report on the
struggles that occur among the most oppressed segments of those societies.
The power of the stories he has collected revolves around everyday people
engaged in redefining power in their own lives and communities.

Joining in the celebration will be Jean Gallo, who has worked with hundreds
of individuals and done decades of extensive human rights work in Central
America. And we welcome Dean Stevens, singer-songwriter extrodinaire, who'll
lead us in jubilent song.

Following the program, please join us for a delicious Central American
buffet.

Tickets are $15 each ($5 for seniors, youth, and students). All are welcome
regardless of ability to pay.
