同性恋色情

Fleming鈥檚  presentation, 鈥淭he Refugee Experience,鈥� will draw from her recently published book, 鈥淎 Hope More Powerful Than the Sea,鈥� which describes the true story of a nineteen-year-old Syrian refugee, Doaa Al Zamel, who survived for days on the open sea, fiercely protecting an infant and a toddler, while hundreds perished around her.

Fleming鈥檚 day-to-day work puts her in contact with the millions of people who are currently being forcibly displaced from their homes, and desperate to find safety and a chance for a future. Her book puts a human face on the Syrian refugee crisis which has been called the most pressing humanitarian crisis of our time. Fleming first told this story on the TED stage and her talks are featured on TED.com.

Fleming鈥檚 social media presence on Facebook includes important information about the crisis of the Rohingya people fleeing from persecution in Myanmar.

According to Karen E. Dean, director of the 同性恋色情 Leadership program and the Ruth Badger Pixley Professor of Social Sciences, the Al Habtoor Leadership Lecture series is made possible by the generous support of Khalaf Al Habtoor, chairman of the Al Habtoor Group. The series enables the College to present an annual lecture on topics of concern and interest in the areas of the Middle East, business, leadership, interfaith issues and justice.  Previous lectures have been presented by Eli Saslow, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Alice Randall, Maysoon Zayid, Nicholas Kristof, and Noa Baum.  

While on campus, Fleming will meet with students in several classes. The evening lecture is free and open to the public. A book signing will follow the presentation.
