About Good People Dinners: GP Dinners is a community built around meaningful ​conversations and delicious feasts, a moveable social club for those who value authenticity, a better way to connect with each other. We are also an event production business and regularly create tailored dinner series for a wide range of companies and organizations.

Our dinners are hosted at a variety of venues in the Bay Area, at Camp Earnest near Yosemite NP and around the country and the world. Every dinner includes a speaker on a wide range of topics and a chef prepared feast.

Please email us at least 72 hours in advance if you have any dietary restrictions and we'll do our best to accommodate them.

OUR SPEAKER:

Our friend Jeanne Carstensen is an award-winning journalist and most recently the author of A Greek Tragedy: One Day, A Deadly Shipwreck and The Human Cost of the Refugeee Crisis.

Her writing has appeared in The New York Times (including an article on Frey Norris Gallery), Foreign Policy, The World, The Nation, Salon, Nautilus, and The Global Post, among other outlets. She covered the Syrian refugee crisis in Greece and Turkey with support from the Pulitzer Center and was short-listed for the Immigration Journalism Awards.

Tonight we'll discuss refugee migrations around the world, the current situation in the United States and where things are likely to develop as climate change and political destabilization force millions and possibly billions from their homes. What do we owe to the refugee? How do we personally decide when we can or can't help a person who is in crisis?
