Invisible Children Film Screenings

Date: Monday, September 1, 2009
Time: 2 P.M & 3 P.M.
Place:Lab School 134

September 14: The Rescue & Together We Are Free. Representatives from Invisible Children will be screening two back to back films. The Rescue (36 min.) covers the past six years of Invisible Children's movement, bringing the history of Africa's longest running war into modern context. The second film, Together We Are Free (39 min.) is a follow up film about the International Rescue event. It tells the story of the supportive community which formed, as caravans of youth traveled across the world to extend their support, modeling the Freedom Riders of the Civil Rights Movement. Consequently, a bill was introduced to Congress which calls on the United States to bring an end to this war and assist in rebuilding the affected region. Please join us for these encouraging stories of youth making a difference in policy change, followed by discussion.
