    As this is a discussion, please let's move it to peace-discuss.<br>
    <br>
    I'll miss the Art, too.   They've brought a lot of great films to
    this town which we would never have seen, or many of us even have
    heard of, without their work.  <br>
    <br>
    And we, sometimes lots of us, got to experience those films
    together.   It doesn't happen that way if you watch things via
    internet stream in atomized isolation.  <br>
    <br>
    And they've put on excellent panels associated with some of those
    films.<br>
    <br>
    <br>
    Concerning Violence, based on Frantz Fanon's writings ...<br>
    <br>
    Bisbee '17, a re-enactment of a miners' strike in Bisbee, AZ, during
    WWI.   The IWW miners, organizing across lines of race and national
    origin, were forced at gunpoint onto a train and dumped hundreds of
    miles away in the desert.    The performance was staged by
    present-day Bisbee residents.  The century-old class divisions are
    still raw.<br>
    <br>
    The Drunk, a lovely film involving the fictional grandson of Eugene
    V. Debs, which along the way shows us bits of the history of
    socialism in the US.<br>
    <br>
    I Am Not Your Negro, a documentary centered on James Baldwin's
    brilliant writing.<br>
    <br>
    Woman At War, which follows a woman quietly outraged at
    environmental exploitation of her native Finland and heads in
    unexpected directions ...<br>
    <br>
    I can't count how many more.<br>
    <br>
    Very sorry the Art is gone.   I'd love to know more about why, and
    whether there might be a prospect for bringing back an Art Theater
    in Champaign-Urbana.<br>
