Viewing Party for Campus ERA Day

In 1923, the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was introduced in U.S. Congress to ensure that women were equal under the law and to prevent sex-based discrimination. Almost 100 years later, the United States Constitution still does not guarantee equal rights for women. Together with many other campuses, we will participate in a zoom discussion with Carol Jenkins (CEO and Co-President of the ERA Coalition), Patricia Arquette (actress and activist),
Dr. Patricia Spearman (Senator, NV), and Gloria Steinem (activist)
to mobilize for ERA ratification.
A pizza dinner will be served.

Towards a Palestinian Third Cinema

In 1970 the filmmakers Jean-Luc Godard and Jean-Pierre Gorin were commissioned by Fatah (with funding from the Arab League) to create a film about the Palestinian Revolution. The footage they shot eventually became the well known essay film Ici et Ailleurs. In 1971 Masao Adachi and Koji Wakamatsu visited the region to shoot footage for their film Japanese Red Army/PFLP Declaration of World War. These works have received considerable critical attention since they first appeared.
