Buddhist nuns in Tibetan politics

Tess Parker '10 sends us word of a talk tomorrow at Buddhist House:

There will be a talk by Columbia professor Robbie Barnett. He will be talking about the self-emergence of Buddhist nuns—historically marginalized figures in Tibetan society—as quietly important political players in contemporary Tibet.
Date: Wednesday, Dec. 5
Time: 5:00 PM
Location: Buddhist House
