The Zami Student Housing Cooperative presents an evening to benefit the Afghan Women's Mission.
Sahar Saba of RAWA will be speaking on her experiences and the current situation of women in Afghanistan. Serving on RAWA’s foreign affairs committee, Sahar has traveled to many countries in the past several years to speak on behalf of RAWA.

Following Ms. Saba's presentation there will be a showing of the film Sadaa E Zan (90 minutes), which documents the stories of the women in war ravaged Afghanistan and under the Taliban. There will also be a raffle as well as an after party with local DJ Durt spinning records.
