Reel Talk: A Film Screening and Conversation on Storytelling and Social Justice
When: Sunday, July 12, 2pm-5pm Where: Congregation Beth Elohim, 274 Garfield Place, Park Slope, Brooklyn
On Sunday, July 12th, join film enthusiasts, story tellers, and fellow Jewish activists, to experience “Youth Producing Change” – a series of short films created by youth from across the globe that premiered at the Human Rights Watch International Film Festival.
Together we will experience the vision of young activists who have channeled art and technology to share their perspectives, engage and empower their communities, and expose human rights issues close to their hearts.
With classic movie treats a plenty, you’re invited to relax, enjoy, and connect with other young Jews from across the city.
Following the screening, local Jewish artists and activists will enhance our movie-going experience by sharing their vantage points as they facilitate dialogue about art and activism. Together we will explore our values and the power of storytelling to promote social change.
Reel Talk is brought to you by the AJWS-AVODAH NY City Team and is co-sponsored by Brooklyn Jews, Uri L’Tzedek, and Mima’amakim. It is made possible thanks to collaboration with the Human Rights Watch International Film Festival and Founding Presenter, Adobe Youth Voices.
