Meaningful Movies: Can You Hear Us Now?

Online Event

Small-town activism. Nail-biting elections. A last-minute power grab. In Wisconsin, where extreme partisanship has become the norm, voters are finding their lives increasingly irrelevant to state lawmakers. Through the stories of four tireless women fighting to have their voices heard, Can You Hear Us Now? unravels the ways that years of one-party control reshaped democracy in a state at the center of American politics.
A riveting film from Bullfrog Films, Can You Hear Us Now? is 87 minutes long, so grab a snack and drink. The film will be followed by a lively discussion session with attendees sharing their points of view about the film.

Meaningful Movies: Behind the Shield

Online Event

Come one, come all – grab some popcorn and watch Behind the Shield from MediaEd Foundation. In this film, Nation magazine sports editor Dave Zirin looks at the myth that the NFL was not involved in politics. Zirin digs into decades of league history tracing the guise of “sticking to sports.” This case study reveals how the power of American football has managed to spread false information about topics including the sanctioning of certain ideas about gender roles, systemic racism, and patriotism. At the same time, Behind the Shield documents the role of activist athletes, even before Colin Kaepernick and other Black NFL players took a knee. Join us and learn about numerous players’ challenges to change an unjust status quo in order to create a different, more democratic America.
