(from Claire Szoke and Rachel Storm of Channing-Murray Foundation -
films they're bringing this fall, starting in September)<br>

They're seeking co-sponsoring organizations. Should AWARE become
one? I think so. <br>

his fourth son, Gibreel, is born, Emad, a Palestinian
villager, gets his first camera. In his village, Bil'in, a
separation barrier is being built and the villagers start to
resist this decision. For more than five years, Emad films
the struggle, which is lead by two of his best friends,
alongside filming how Gibreel grows. Very soon it affects
his family and his own life. Daily arrests and night raids
scare his family; his friends, brothers and him as well are
either shot or arrested. One Camera after another is shot at
or smashed, each camera tells a part of his story.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

honor of Worlds Aids Day, Channing Murray Foundation will be
screening How To Survive a Plague. HOW TO SURVIVE A PLAGUE
is the story of two coalitions—ACT UP and TAG (Treatment
Action Group)—whose activism and innovation turned AIDS from
a death sentence into a manageable condition. Despite having
no scientific training, these self-made activists
infiltrated the pharmaceutical industry and helped identify
promising new drugs, moving them from experimental trials to
patients in record time. With unfettered access to a
treasure trove of never-before-seen archival footage from
the 1980s and '90s, filmmaker David France puts the viewer
smack in the middle of the controversial actions, the heated
meetings, the heartbreaking failures, and the exultant
breakthroughs of heroes in the making. </span><span
