promoting peace in our uncivil world
DESCRIPTION
This presentation came about as request from teachers to talk to their students about respect. The Dr. King quote provided me with an ephinay and serves as the theme of my presentation. I have given this talk to thousands of high school students since 2000, but the presentation you see here is MUCH better than the text heavy ppt I was using thanks to the creative genius of Tou Lee Yang!TRANSCRIPT

“It may be that the
GREATEST TRAGEDY
in this period of social
transition is NOT the glaring noisiness of the so called
BAD PEOPLE, but the appalling
silence of the so called
GOOD PEOPLE”
