Description

Leading up to Peace Day on September 21, our podcast has become a media sponsor to World Beyond War's upcoming virtual film festival, an event seeking to expose the impact of militarism around the world and the power of nonviolence. 
The festival will span 3 weekends — Saturday, September 4, September 11, and September 18 — covering a multitude of themes, from colonial violence in Canada and military base pollution in Washington State, to a coup d’état in Haiti and nonviolent peacekeeping in Bougainville. 

September 4 @ 3:00pm Eastern Time: INVASION & PLANE TRUTHS + Q&A with JEN WICKHAM, PLANE TRUTHS filmmaker MARK DWORKIN, and ANNE HARVEY, chair of Sound Defense Alliance
September 11 @ 3:00pm Eastern Time: HAITI BETRAYED + Q&A with director ELAINE BRIERE and NIKOLAS BARRY-SHAW
September 18 @ 3:00pm Eastern Time: SOLDIERS WITHOUT GUNS + Q&A with director WILL WATSON, former New Zealand Army Major FIONA CASSIDY, WBW board member JOHN REUWER, and WBW New Zealand chapter coordinator LIZ REMMERSWAAL

Each film screening will be followed by an exclusive Q&A with the directors and special guests to explore the topics covered in the films and how to take action.
Film festival tickets are priced on a sliding scale starting at just $5 USD. All proceeds benefit World BEYOND War to grow the global movement for war abolition and to help cover event expenses. One ticket gets you a festival pass to access all of the films and panel discussions. Films will be screened on Zoom. Once you register, you will receive an email with the Zoom link to access the festival.
RSVP here.
