JOIN US TOMORROW IN DENVER!!
We are bringing a work sample of the Uprooting Qahr! film and hosting a much needed talk back in Denver on May 19th from 6:30 – 8:30 pm!!
We are excited to be invited by the Middle East Justice Project at the First Unitarian Society of Denver to to hold space for hard conversations, to repair and restore pathways to coexistence, and to build momentum that allows us to resist AND reimagine!
Uprooting Qahr! Power, Privilege, and Paperwork is a multimedia experience that follows Taishya Adams – educator, artist, and policy maker – as she confronts colonial cancers spread from Europe to Africa to the Americas and West Asia. Weaving across personal and political histories, we face the uneven promise of democracy and the possibilities of liberty and justice for all.
Qahr (n): an Arabic word for the combined feelings of Sadness, frustration, anger caused by intergenerational displacement, dispossession and discrimination.
Uprooting Qahr! is a Mukuyu Collective Production in partnership with eight16creative. The Climate Justice Hive, a 501(c)3 organization, serves as our fiscal sponsor. Every registration to this event will bring us closer to achieving our mission. Together, we can create a brighter, more compassionate world for all.
