Join us for a powerful evening with Arno Michaelis, a former white supremacist who now works tirelessly to counter extremism and promote compassion. The author of “My Life After Hate”, Michaelis will share his unique journey, helping others understand and overcome prejudice. His raw, honest storytelling draws from personal experience and illustrates how empathy and compassion can allow for healing after hate.
