On October 10: The Insult - After an emotional exchange between a Lebanese Christian and a Palestinian refugee escalates, the men end up in a court case that gets national attention. One reviewer says, "The Insult uses its familiar courtroom drama framework to deliver a hard-hitting statement on modern Middle Eastern politics that's as gripping as it is thought-provoking."
Light refreshments will be served.
Cosponsored by The Center for South Asian and Middle Eastern Studies and The Urbana Free Library.
Conveniently located at the corner of Race and Green in downtown Urbana.
