[PAA-Discuss] Should PAA show this documentary?

Sun Oct 4 13:23:44 EDT 2009

Congrats of the venue, Ivan. I still think we should join Progressive Forum.
Can show it at Art Car Museum and at The Canvas. It is soooo important to
educate folks on the subject of Afghanistan. Lee L

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)?

Bill

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
<http://action2.bravenewfilms.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&c=j838ySWi77hYn%2Fa6yZ
KD1oruZnomETN6> . Enter your zip code, and sign up to attend!

If you can't make a house party screening, contribute to Brave New
Foundation
<http://action2.bravenewfilms.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&c=S9WfMotl9PaW274G9q4R
qIruZnomETN6>  so we can continue our campaign, and receive a DVD as a thank
you gift.

Then sign our petition
<http://action2.bravenewfilms.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=2&c=14E%2ByGSs9to3RBodc8
cMIoruZnomETN6>  for Congressional hearings on non-military solutions for
Afghanistan .

Yours,
Robert Greenwald
