Movie Night: WHY WE HATE: Crimes Against Humanity and Hope

14 May 2024 - 7:00 pm

What drives certain people to commit horrific acts, such as mass murder, ethnic purging, and other atrocities, and how can we realistically stand up against them? And how can we resist succumbing to our worst impulses and awaken our inner conscience?

Join us on MAY 14 for EPISODE 5: CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY, with international criminal lawyer, Patricia Viseur Sellers, who analyzes the actions of powerful individuals and their loyal followers who orchestrate heinous crimes, along with the courageous individuals who oppose the destructive forces of hatred. EPISODE 6: HOPE follows with neuroscientist Emile Bruneau delving into strategies to combat hate, including using our cognitive abilities such as critical thinking and brain plasticity, as well as leveraging human resources like education and cooperation.
