[PAA-Discuss] Should PAA show this documentary?

[Ivan Espinosa]

Hi everyone,
 
Yesterday, I took a tour of the prospective property for THE CANVAS (the multi-arts venue that I'm establishing).
It's in the Heights, near Shepherd and W 11th.
 
It's absolutely WONDERFUL. It's cheap and it's very roomy, too (a whopping 2400 square feet).
It has a kitchen and two restrooms, too!
 
My dad and I are going to submit the lease application this evening to our realtor.
 
Best of all, the property has a room that's PERFECTLY SUITED for a mini-theater that we can use for film screenings!
 
I propose that the PAA show Robert Greenwald's latest documentary at THE CANVAS later this month.
We can talk more about this at the PAA meeting this Thursday.
 
How does that sound to y'all?
I think that would be a SPLENDID thing to do!
 
Yours Truly,
Ivan Espinosa

I will order it now if there is enough interest in screening ……….I heard it on DN and along with the piece of art(“Death to Usrael”) I have up at the Art Car Museum I would very much like to show it there.

You may have heard about this on Democracy Now (on Friday) - Robert Greenwald's latest documentary, on Afghanistan .  If you missed that story and movie excerpt, read on and check the links below to see the trailer (or even the whole movie).

 

Should PAA host a showing of this?  Looks good to me but I'd like to hear from the rest of you.  Has anyone ordered the DVD yet (or planning to do so)?

Dear Bill,




1. Attend a screening
2. Get a DVD
3. Sign the petition


Wednesday will mark the 8-year anniversary of the initiation of the war in Afghanistan . Eight long years, and what progress has been made? The country remains in chaos, civilian deaths have risen along with troop levels, the financial cost of the war is skyrocketing when our economy can least afford it, and the Al-Qaeda leadership is nowhere to be found.

All over the country, activists are educating their friends and neighbors about this misguided war by hosting hundreds of house party screenings of 'Rethink Afghanistan.'

There's a screening near you. Enter your zip code, and sign up to attend!

If you can't make a house party screening, contribute to Brave New Foundation so we can continue our campaign, and receive a DVD as a thank you gift.

Then sign our petition for Congressional hearings on non-military solutions for Afghanistan .

Yours,
Robert Greenwald
and the Brave New Foundation team
