 \n6501 Telegraph Ave, Oakland, CA 94609 \nFriday 5/2,  5/9,  7pm \n\nThe 
 Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear, is the highly 
 acclaimed, award-winning BBC documentary series by Adam Curtis. \nThe 
 series of 3 films chronicles the history of the Neo-Conservative movement 
 and the growth of its symbiotic mirror, the radical Islamist movement. It 
 argues convincingly that the threat of radical Islamism as a massive, 
 sinister organised force of destruction, specifically in the form of 
 al-Qaeda, is in fact a manichean myth invented by the Neo-conservatives in 
 an attempt to frighten, manipulate and control the population to further 
 their political aims. \n\n"Painstakingly assembled evidence, that heightens 
 and cleanses your perceptions" Entertainment Weekly \n"A superb, 
 eye-opening, funny deconstruction of the myths and realities of global 
 terrorism." Variety \n"Arguably the most important film about the 'war on 
 terrorism'." The Nation \n"Absurdity." FoxNews.com \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
