Hingham Unity Council Event

Dan Osborn has spent nearly two decades living in and traveling to Jordan, Israel, the Palestinian West Bank, and Lebanon, where he has cultivated relationships and witnessed the humanity that is too often unrepresented. Join us for a delicious Middle Eastern meal prepared by Bo Cafe and then hear Dan share stories from his travels and offer an exploration into the diversity and vibrancy of life across the Middle East.

Join us for a special screening of "Who We Are: A Chronicle of Racism in America." Interweaving lecture, personal anecdotes, interviews, and shocking revelations, criminal defense and civil rights lawyer Jeffery Robinson draws a stark timeline of anti-Black racism in the United States, from slavery to the modern myth of a post-racial America.

In March, enjoy innovative Chinese culinary creations from Mei Mei Dumplings and then prepare to be captivated by author and national speaker Kim Anthony's powerful story of resilience and triumph.

How do good people lose their minds in soul-crushing conflicts with co-workers, neighbors, grown siblings or even national politicians they’ve never met? In her book High Conflict, through the stories of half a dozen conflict survivors in three countries, journalist Amanda Ripley reveals how humans can help one another break out of destructive feuds–and generate healthy, useful conflict instead. Amanda Ripley is a New York Times bestselling author, a Washington Post contributing columnist, and the co-founder of Good Conflict, a media and training company that helps people reimagine conflict. Join us for a "fireside chat" with Ms. Ripley that is sure to be enlightening and fascinating and a delicious Latino dinner catered by Boston's Merengue Restaurant. Read more about Amanda Ripley here. Soft drinks will be provided but you are welcome to bring your own beverage as well. The $25 per person cost of this event includes a full dinner and the speaker.
