“Finding Our Voices-Stories of American Dissent”

October 17, 20087:30 pm

Finding Our VoicesNarrated by Martin Sheen, this film movingly portrays eight diverse Americans’ opposition to the Iraq war and occupation. The eight are: a career diplomat who resigned his post; a mother of a New York firefighter who died in the 9/11 collapse; a soldier who refused to fight in Iraq and went to prison; Representative Jim Morgan whose Virginia district includes the Pentagon; a pastor; a Gold Star mother; and a co-founder of Code Pink. The film convincingly shows that everyday people can - and must- make a difference.

“Iran Is Not The Problem”

October 10, 20087:30 pm

Iran is Not the ProblemThis film is an urgent response to the failure (again) of U.S. commercial media to provide accurate, objective information rather than the rightist spin. It contains current analysis and history, including the U.S. overthrow of the democratic Iranian government in 1953 and interviews with Iranian Americans. Noam Chomsky was an advisor for the filmmakers.
