Description:
Workshop presented by Brent Scarpo, Director, Journey to a Hate Free Millennium
Journey to a Hate Free Millennium is the multiple award-winning documentary that seeks solutions to ending HATE and the terrible hate crimes that have become frequent events in our daily lives. The stirring and powerful film centers around true stories taken direct from the national headlines including: The dreadful student shootings at Columbine High School in Littleton, Colorado; the torturous dragging death of James Byrd, Jr., an African-American man in Texas; and the brutal beating death of Matthew Shepard, a gay college student in Wyoming.
The inspiring documentary addresses the subject of HATE by searching out the origins of how it is "taught and learned," the scope of its danger beginning with childhood taunting to murder. Viewers are invited to take a stand against HATE and create their own vision of a world free of HATE, where senseless acts of violence are a thing of the past. The program utilizes the groundbreaking documentary in an interactive, multi-media presentation that impacts and changes the view of HATE in the world.
