ST. PAUL'S CENTRE
********************
On Dec. 4 at 7 p.m., at St. Paul’s Centre, author Matthew Legge will give a presentation: Are We Done Fighting? Building Understanding in a World of Hate and Division.
Are We Done Fighting? This challenge is the subject of the presentation at St. Paul’s Centre.
Legge has worked in the non-profit sector for the last 13 years, with a focus on building health, dignity, and human rights. He’s supported locally-led peace initiatives in North America, Latin America, the Caribbean, Africa, the Middle East and Asia.
Since 2012, Legge has worked for Canadian Friends Service Committee (CFSC), the peace and social justice agency of Quakers in Canada. Quakers are widely respected for their efforts to prevent war and transform conflicts, as well as their impartial support for war victims.
As CFSC’s Peace Program Coordinator, Legge has had the opportunity to learn from Quakers across Canada and in the U.S., Europe, and Africa.
Are We Done Fighting? is written for a general audience as part of Legge's work for CFSC, and proceeds go toward CFSC’s peace and justice work. This is Legge's first book. He also writes the popular blog Are We Done Fighting? for Psychology Today.
