Moving Documentary About Ending Oppression Against Women Worldwide

Past event
Dec 5, 2013, 5 to 7 PM

Dear Neighbors,
Local midwives Chelsea Blackwell and Hannah Allen will be showing a portion of the documentary 'Half the Sky' at the Hunger Mountain Co-op next Thursday 12/5 from 5-7pm.

This documentary is based on the book of the same name by Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl Wu Dun who take an in depth look at the state of women world wide. We will be showing two segments of the film. While the film is not graphic in imagery, the spoken content is heavy. We are not recommending children attend for this reason. Half the Sky tackles some very disturbing issues for women and children, but it also comes from a foundation of belief in the strength and resilience of these communities and has many remarkable and uplifting messages.
