Join us for an upcoming film showing and talk with one of the filmmakers -- @thenativeandtherefugee -- of "Spaces of Exception" on Friday April 25th @ 6pm -- co-organized with @nwicommunitysolidarity "Spaces of Exception features interviews with members of the American Indian Movement, the Mohawk Warrior Society, and Diné families resisting displacement on Black Mesa, as well as members of Fatah, Palestinian environmental and media activists, autonomous youth committees, and the families of political prisoners and martyrs. The film investigates and juxtaposes the struggles, communities, and spaces of the American Indian reservation and the Palestinian refugee camp. It was shot from 2014 to 2017 in Arizona, New Mexico, New York, and South Dakota, as well as in Lebanon and the West Bank. Spaces of Exception is an attempt to understand the significance of the land – its memory and divisions – and the conditions for life, community, and sovereignty."
