ERIC VOLZ at Temple de Hirsch Sinai

08/19/2010 7:00 pm
Co-presented with the WORLD AFFAIRS COUNCIL YOUNG PROFESSIONALS NETWORK and SEATTLE UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY AND MINISTRY. Faith, family and grassroots efforts around the world eventually helped to free Eric Volz, a young American wrongly convicted of the murder of his ex-girlfriend in Nicaragua, a story documented in his book, Gringo Nightmare (St. Martin's Press). Since his release, Eric Volz has set out to raise awareness about the significance of the rule of law, and to create a dialogue about how cross-cultural differences and international political tensions can impair the ability of national and international legal institutions to deliver true justice. In conversation with Eric Volz will be Roslyn Solomon, co-founder of the Implementation Project and former director of the U.S. program Uplift International, a Seattle-based health and human rights organization. Tickets ($10 / $5 students and YPIN members) and more information are available via the World Affairs Council at (206) 441-5910, or www.world-affairs.org. Temple de Hirsch is at 1511 E. Pike Street.
