The Department of Women?s Studies presents the film Pray the Devil Back to Hell in the University Union Potomac Lounge on Wednesday, November 18, 2009 starting at 3:30pm.
Pray the Devil Back to Hell chronicles the remarkable story of the courageous Liberian women who came together to end a bloody civil war and bring peace to their shattered country. Thousands of women – ordinary mothers, grandmothers, aunts and daughters, both Christian and Muslim – came together to pray for peace. Armed with only white t – shirts and the courage of their convictions, they took on the warlords and nonviolently forced a resolution during the stalled peace talks.
Refreshments will be served.
