StandUp for Peace: Two Comedians' Solution to Middle East Peace

After their appearance at the Diversity Fair, two comedians, Scott Blakeman and Dean Obeidallah, will bring their world-renowned comedy show "StandUp for Peace" to the University and community. Their Thursday, Nov. 8, show will be held at 8 p.m. in McIlhenny Balllroom. Admission is free and open to the public. A reception with the comedians will follow the show. This event is co-hosted and sponsored by the Office of Equity and Diversity and The University of Scranton Programming Board.

"StandUp for Peace is the disarmingly funny comedy show that brings Jews, Arabs, Muslims and people from all backgrounds together to laugh, and encourages a dialogue in support of a peaceful, political resolution of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict." – from www.standupforpeace.com
