Laal salaam / Red greetings!
what: RCYB Movie Night - "SAVED!", followed by discussion
when: Friday, Dec 30, 6pm
where: Revolution Books, 1833 Nagle Pl (near corner of Broadway & Denny on Capitol Hill, ph#
206-325-7415)
Every other Friday at Revolution Books, "Movie Nights with the RCYB",
there will be a movie showing followed by discussion on the themes
brought up the movie.
To start with we'll have a series of movies dealing with fascism &
theocracy, because that is the direction this country is being pushed
to by its leaders. (If you don't believe us, you need to read
Revolution newspaper at
http://revcom.us , as well as the
http://WorldCantWait.org website & the books "With God on Their
Side" by Esther Kaplan & "Contempt: How the Right Is Wronging
American Justice" by Catherine Crier...)
Last time we showed "The Handmaid's Tale" & saw the
all-too-possible future under Christian Fascist theocracy -- this time
we see the all-too-real attempts of the fundamentalists to brainwash
kids with intolerant, antiscientific nonsense.
This installment will be "SAVED!" starring Mandy Moore & Macaulay
Culkin. (yes you read that right...) This is a present day comedy,
taking place at a fundamentalist Christian high school in the US. The
film pokes fun at fundamentalist lunacy, while dealing seriously with
issues of homosexuality, pregnancy, & morality. However, neither is
it coming from a strictly atheist standpoint. So there should be plenty
of stuff to get into for the discussion.
Future films in the series may include "EQUILIBRIUM", "DAYBREAK", & "I, ROBOT". (Exact schedule TBA.)
Please pass this message on to others; suggestions are welcome; hope to see you there!
