#1000 Screenings

Calling all Organizers Educators World-Changers!

These are indeed unprecedented times. Colonialism, capitalism and corporate power is wreaking far greater havoc on society than when the original film came out in 2003. Today, we are in the midst of a climate emergency, mired in inequity, racism, injustice, economic exploitation at a scale not seen since the 1920s. Join us to launch #1000screenings + dialogue sessions. Change is coming.

Are you ready to get work?
