This compeling documentary tells of the Ethiopian government's reported massacre of nearly 200 unarmed civilians following protests on the disputed national election of 2005. Ethiopians in the United States reacted by attempting to use their US citizenship to impose foreign aid restrictions against their native country. Told through deeply personal stories the film illustrates how civic involvement can influence issues concerning human rights and democracy on a worldwide scale.
Screening followed by Q&A with Director Chris Flaherty
