Join us for (our last until further notice) Free Movie Night Thursday, May 3rd at 7PM
AWAKE A Dream From Standing Rock The Water Protectors at Standing Rock captured world attention through their peaceful resistance. While many may know the details, AWAKE, A Dream from Standing Rock captures the story of Native-led defiance that forever changed the fight for clean water, our environment and the future of our planet. The film is a collaboration between Indigenous filmmakers, Director Myron Dewey, Executive Producer Doug Good Feather and environmental Oscar Nominated filmmakers Josh Fox and James Spione. It is a labor of love to support the peaceful movement of the water protectors.

The Whittier Area Peace & Justice Coalition invites you to (our last until further notice) "3rd Thursday" Teach-In May 17th at 7PM
We were supposed to show this last month but the DVD (and Charell) couldn't make it to April's 3rd Thursday Teach-In. This will be Whittier Area Peace & Justice Coalition's last public event for a while so we hope you'll join us. We will finish showing Robbie Martin’s astounding documentary film series: A Very Heavy Agenda If you missed any part of this series that we've been showing over the last 5 months you can attend Thursday, May 17th and learn much from the last part. It's edited in such a way that you can jump in at any time.
Tonight we finish Part 3: Maintaining the World Order
Who are the Neo-Cons? How have they influenced the agenda and actions of the American Empire? In this astounding documentary series they tell us exactly who and what they are in their own words. Filmmaker Robbie Martin’s exceptional insight, video editing and music composition talent makes this series not just a documentary but a work of art. We showed Part 1 on January 4th and will show the rest, of the over 7 hours of this series, on subsequent 3rd Thursday Teach-Ins. The horrific consequences of what the Neo-Cons have perpetrated on our world continue to manifest. Viewing this documentary series is being a witness to history. Don't miss it!
