Just a reminder of the movies for Palestine Action Week tonight and
tomorrow....

(TONIGHT!) Wednesday April 21 - Jenin, Jenin 7pm @ 106 Lincoln Hall
    An award-winning documentary film which exposes Israel's war crimes
and consistent policy of ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people.
Banned in Israel, "Jenin Jenin" is dedicated to Iyad Samudi, the producer
of the film, who was shot dead by Israeli soldiers on June 23rd, 2002, as
he returned home after completing the film.

(TOMORROW!)  Thursday April 22 - Gaza Strip 7pm @ 245 AltGeld Hall
    "Gaza Strip" pushes the viewer headlong into the tumult of the
Israeli-occupied Gaza, examining the lives and views of ordinary
Palestinians.  The documentary often sees the world through the eyes
of young people. The central character is Mohammed Hejazi, a
13-year-old paperboy in Gaza City, one of the young "stone-throwers"
who risk their lives throwing rocks at Israeli tanks across the barbwire
fences
