SUMMARY:Stamped From the Beginning Film
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, February 12\, 2024 at 7:00 pm\, 4200 Cedar Ave S\, Mpls\, MN \nWAMM Second Movie Monday Presents…\nStamped From the Beginning: A documentary film directed and produced by Roger Ross Williams. It is based on the non-fiction book\, Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America by Ibram X. Kendi.\nThe film explores racist tropes and imagery that were de-veloped and enshrined in American culture throughout his-tory. Williams stated “This is about power and the few clinging to power and using it at the expense of Black Americans. This isn’t a film for Black Americans. This is a film for the whole world. Hopefully it brings people to-gether and leads people on a path of antiracism and heal-ing”\nProducer/Director: Roger Ross Williams\nWriter: David Teague\nUS | 2023 | 85 minutes\n\nConnecting the dots…discussion\nAlways FREE and open to the public\nALL ARE WELCOME!

SUMMARY:Voices from the Holy Land Online Film Salon: "Israeli Apartheid in Action: Water Control"
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, March 17\, 2024\, 2:00 pm\, Online\, Click here to register \nControlling the supply\, distribution\, and cost of water to an occupied people is apartheid in action. Israel\, through legal and illegal means\, maintains near-complete control over the region’s freshwater aquifers\, severely restricting Palestinians’ abilities to drill wells\, install pumps\, build water tanks\, or even collect rainwater. The average Israeli consumes over 3 times the water used by each Palestinian on the water grid in the West Bank (9 times the water used by those off the grid). West Bank Palestinians pay 1/3 or more of their income to Israeli companies for drinking water. Meanwhile\, Gazans are now consuming less than 3 liters per day—hardly enough for survival. \nVFHL offers three short videos describing the “hydropolitics” and structural water apartheid in the Holy Land. Our panel discussion will explore designed inequalities in water distribution; the physical\, economic and regulatory controls; as well as the ecological problems of pollution and over-extraction. \nRegister below and join us on March 17 at 2:00 PM Central for a discussion of the water crisis throughout Palestine\, with: \n– Nancy Murray – Co-founder of Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine \n– Mazin Qumsiyeh – Director of the Palestine Institute for Biodiversity and Sustainability \n– Eyal Hareuveni – Author of “Parched: Israel’s Policy of Water Deprivation in the West Bank” \nOur moderator will be Jeff Halper\, Israeli-American anthropologist\, author\, lecturer\, and political activist; founder of Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions (ICAHD) and a co-founder of The One Democratic State Campaign (ODSC)(invited). \nNOTE: After you register\, you will immediately get an Approved response – BUT then look in your email for an email From: Zoom with the word “Confirmation” at the end of the subject line…there you’ll find the link and password to watch the film in advance of the Salon event.

SUMMARY:Amy Klobuchar\, come share the PEACE our faith demands
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, March 18\, 2024\, 5:00 PM\, 1200 Washington Ave S\, MPLS \nChristians for a Free Palestine is calling for a day of Christian-led actions at the offices of elected officials who continue to fund this genocide. We in Minneapolis are proud to participate! On March 18\, we will use our public voice and our collective power to advocate for peace and demand an immediate ceasefire at the office of Amy Klobuchar. We will gather in community\, sing loudly\, reflect together about what our spirituality demands of us in this moment\, and invite our political leaders to do the same. Bring your signs\, your broken heart\, and your singing voice! \nIn the face of Christian Zionism\, using our faith to cheer on this genocide\, Christians have a responsibility to use our voices as powerfully as possible for the cause of peace and justice. During this Lenten season\, we are taking public action as Christians to grieve the ongoing violence\, challenge Christian Zionism\, and advocate for a ceasefire and an end to Israeli Apartheid. \nhttps://actionnetwork.org/events/amy-klobuchar-come-share-the-peace-our-faith-demands?source=direct_link&
