Dear Professor Morris,
Wednesday, April 4th, 2018I’m writing to introduce you to the Forum on Law, Culture & Society, a non-profit based at NYU that aims to get people off their couches, out of their homes, and into a thought-provoking setting where they can engage with the human rights and social justice issues of our day.
We have an upcoming event that I think you might be excited about. We’re going to be discussing THE SIEGE (1998) and its societal implications in today’s world with its award-winning director Ed Zwick and other special guests (Details below.)
If you could spread the word to anyone else who might be interested, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time and hope to see you there!
Best,
Katie Yee
