Watching the news, it seems like ethnic divides are ever-deepening. But how can we solve these complicated problems when each side lives in fear of the other? The answer is simple, argues Syrian-American poet Amal Kassir, "it starts with, 'What's your name?'" Amal Kassir is a Muslim Woman, born and raised in Denver, Colo. to a German-Iowan mother and a Syrian father. She is an international spoken word poet, having performed in 10 countries and more than 45 cities. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. 

Free to WSU students with Shocker ID, $3 faculty/staff, $5 general admission and $1 for children 12 and under. Cash or check only at the door.
