OJAI — At 3 p.m. on Saturday, November 24, 2018, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) will visit the Ojai Library to host a viewing of a 2007 speech titled“Governments Lie: Howard Zinn on Class Warfare, Immigration, Justice, Film and History.”
The featured video is of a speech given in 2007 by Professor Emeritus Howard Zinn, author of a score of books, including A People’s History of the United States and You Can’t be Neutral on a Moving Train. In his uplifting and empowering style, Professor Zinn describes the power of “participatory democracy” in many situations both at home and abroad where ordinary people brought about change in government policies just by showing up and resisting those policies.
This event is free and open to the public. For additional information, contact Ron Solórzano, Regional Librarian, at (805) 218-9146.
The Ojai Library is at 111 East Ojai Avenue in Ojai, CA. Hours of service are 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. Friday through Sunday.
