Public Talk Information

From: World Tibet Network News, Friday - August 4, 1995

Tibet, in its 4th decade of Chinese occupation, is struggling for survival. The Dalai Lama, the exiled leader of the 6 million Tibetan people, is one of the world's leading advocates for the resolution of international problems through peaceful means and for a reverence of all things living. He comes to the United States to gather support for his people and to advance a solution to the issue of Tibet. Join him in honoring the Tibetan people and the spirit of nonviolence in today's conflicted world.

His Holiness will be in the U.S. from September 3 - 14. The visit is being hosted by the International Campaign for Tibet.
