Film Screening: Dr. King: A Call to Conscience
Brought to you by the Halifax Peace Coalition
7:00pm
- 8:30pm
Monday January 16 2012
Free public screening to mark Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. day. Filmmaker PBS
Host Tavis Smiley gives greater insight into Dr. King's anti-war views and
deconstructs his most important but least known speech "Beyond Vietnam: A
Time to Break the Silence". This 2010 film puts Dr. King's legacy in a
contemporary context, particularly in light of the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan. A must see! Organized by the Halifax Peace Coalition, Films on
Critical Issues, Nova Scotia Public Interest Research Group, the Canadian
Department of Peace Initiative, and Occupy NS. All welcome! More information
