The Social Justice Cooperative will be having its weekly film showing tonight at 7pm in Room 1-190
Tonight's film is a documentary about Jamiaca and the World Bank entitled, "Life and Debt." Here's a summary from the webpage www.lifeanddebt.org:
'Utilizing excerpts from the award-winning non-fiction text "A Small Place" by Jamaica Kincaid, Life & Debt is a woven tapestry of sequences focusing on the stories of individual Jamaicans whose strategies for survival and parameters of day-to-day existence are determined by the U.S. and other foreign economic agendas. By combining traditional documentary telling with a stylized narrative framework, the complexity of international lending, structural adjustment policies and free trade will be understood in the context of the day-to-day realities of the people whose lives they impact.'
After the film we can talk about the recent rallies and further actions.
peace,
mike
