Free event: The Interrupters

Free film event tonight--The Interrupters.

The Interrupters (by Steve James, director of Hoop Dreams, and Alex Kotlowitz, author of There Are No Children Here) tells the story of three “violence interrupters” in Chicago who now protect their communities from the violence that they once employed. Steve James and Alex Kotlowitz will be joined by Tio Hardiman, director of Ceasefire Illinois and Ricardo (COBE) Williams, national community coordinator with Ceasefire, for a panel discussion following the film screening.

Please RSVP here and I hope to hear some good post-screening discussion.
