National Dialogue for Peace
On Friday, Sept. 12, more than a dozen town hall meetings on U.S.-Islamic world relations will take place across the country. In Washington, the town hall will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. on the George Washington University campus at the Elliot School of International Affairs (1957 E St. NW, between 19th and 20th streets). The meeting will begin with brief remarks from a panel of distinguished speakers, including the Al Jazeera Washington bureau chief. The panel will then lead a discussion on how the United States and the Islamic world can work together to stem our growing mutual hatred.
For more information on the series of town hall meetings, visit this website.
