"Crossing Borders"
MONDAY, DEC. 5 at 7 p.m.

Location: TBA,

Southern New Hampshire University

A showing of the film "Crossing Borders" during SNHU's international week! Join us to watch this documentary and then discuss citizen diplomacy.

“Crossing Borders” is a seventy minute documentary that follows four Moroccan and four American university students as they travel together through Morocco and, in the process of discovering “The Other.” discover themselves. With group travels and frank discussions, the students confront the complex implications of the supposed “clash of civilizations” between Islam and the West. The relationships formed through shared experiences contrast sharply with the media-shaped views Americans and Muslims have of each other. Humor, honesty and a willingness to be challenged all bring individuals closer to each other and the relationships that develop disarm hidden stereotypes.

PART OF GLOBAL NEW HAMPSHIRE MONTH!

This programs on Citizen Diplomacy has been initiated through a seed grant from the National Council of International Visitors as part of its 50^th Anniversary celebration.
