| Myra Dahgaypaw addresses an Upper School assembly. |
For several years, PCD's student-run Peace Jam club has been supporting the U.S. Campaign for Burma, an organization that provides aid to refugees from the ongoing humanitarian crisis in that country. Part of the club's ongoing effort includes this Friday evening's Burma benefit concert in Corkery Hall. A variety of students and faculty will be performing at the event, which begins at 6 on Friday evening. We will bring you more on the concert next week.
In preparation for the concert, the Peace Jam club brought Myra Dahgaypaw to an Upper School assembly Friday morning to teach students about the Burma crisis. In an engaging lecture, replete with statistics and photos, Ms. Dahgaypaw eloquently demonstrated the extent to which the ethnic minorities in the country have been persecuted for over 50 years.
