MEETING ROOM A/B

A four-part series of community discussions based on the Big Sonia film, beginning with a kick off screening on Sunday, October 7 and continuing every Sunday in October. Attend one or all sessions.

A poignant story of generational trauma and healing, this 90-minute film offers a portrait of 91-year-old Sonia Warshawski, great-grandmother, businesswoman, and Holocaust survivor. It illustrates how love can triumph over bigotry and the healing power of truth-telling.

Hicks will discuss his latest novel, The Commandant of Lubizec, which is based upon Auschwitz and other infamous concentration camps. A former Visiting Fellow at Oxford, he is writer-in-residence at Augustana University and the author of more than 10 books. Registration required. Part 1 of a 4-part series.
