The Breaking the Silence
Speakers Tour is an outgrowth of Congo
Week. It serves as a follow-up to the week of activities and a continuation
of the drive to build a global movement in support of the Congo. The Speakers
Tour is a multi-city tour that occurs throughout the United States, Canada and
select countries around the world. This year FOTC will undertake a special tour
of Latin America. In its sixth year, the Speakers Tour occurs each Spring from
February 1 to July 2nd (Birthday of Patrice
Lumumba and Commemorative date of Kimpa
Vita).
During the tour, films
are shown and presentations made to educate communities about the situation in
the Congo and how people throughout the globe can get involved. We encourage
universities, high schools, community organizations, labor unions, business
groups, environmental and human rights organizations, religious institutions,
individuals and others to participate in the Breaking
the Silence Speakers Tour.
Individuals, organizations and
communities can participate by completing the online
speakers form or calling the FOTC office (1-888-584-6510) to arrange for the
tour to come to your community.
