DESCRIPTION:Students for Justice in Palestine is overjoyed to invite you to the first 
 event in our November series! Please join us for the screening of a new 
 documentary on our historic 2010 divestment campaign at UC Berkeley. For 
 those who were present, for those who only heard about it--come, and bring 
 your friends!\n\nUsing various interviews, film from the Berkeley student 
 senate proceedings, and supporting documentary footage from Palestinian 
 territories and Egypt, PRESSURE POINTS is a documentary that explores 
 the\ndynamics of the debate on Israel's human rights abuses and its 
 historic significance within U.S. social justice movements. Testimony of 
 pro-Israel students from groups such as Hillel and top Israeli diplomat 
 Akiva Tor is counterpointed in the film by witnesses including several 
 Palestinian students, a Holocaust survivor, representatives from Jewish 
 Voice for Peace, diverse student activists, and noted academics.\n\nWatch
