*******************************

It's time again for our annual Human Rights Film Series! The Human Rights
Film Series is an opportunity for campus and community members to come
together to view and discuss films pertinent to those issues that face us
all. Following each film, there will be a discussion facilitated by a
local campus or community member who has expertise on the topic of the
documentary. The films will be shown using IDF’s newly purchased projector
and large screen. Light snacks and refreshments will be available!

This fall's series kicks off with "Bonhoeffer"!

BONHOEFFER is a documentary that tells the dramatic story of Dietrich
Bonhoeffer, the young German theologian who offered one of the first clear
voices of resistance to Adolf Hitler. Bonhoeffer openly challenged his
church to stand with the Jews in their time of need, and eventually joined
his family in the plots to kill Hitler. His books, like "Letters and
Papers from Prison," were written during the struggle and are considered
classics in the world of religion and ethics.

Rev. James Holiman, campus minister emeritus of IDF, will facilitate the
discussion afterwards.
