DESCRIPTION:Come to one of the first screenings of\n\nDOS AMERICAS: THE RECONSTRUCTION 
 OF NEW ORLEANS\n\nA new documentary by Upheaval Productions\n\nPost-Katrina 
 reconstruction is still in progress throughout the Gulf Coast, with much of 
 the City of New Orleans still in ruins. This documentary focuses on those 
 rebuilding this city through interviews with some of the estimated 100,000 
 Latino migrant laborers who have converged in this area over the past two 
 and a half years. Despite terrible working conditions, massive fraud, a 
 housing crisis, severe harassment by law enforcement, and very limited 
 resources, New Orleans’ Latino community has mushroomed since the storm 
 and is establishing an infrastructure proportional to its size. \n\nTake a 
 look at how this community is organizing to defend itself against numerous 
 injustices and the attempts to bridge the gap between themselves as new 
 residents and the pre-Katrina population, all within the context of the 
 extremely unique and tragic context of post-Katrina New 
 Orleans.\n\nFollowed by a Q&A with one of the filmmakers. \n\nWednesday 
 July 9th, 2008\n8pm\nStation 40: 3030 B 16th St. @ Mission\nSan Francisco, 
 CA 94103\n\nFor more information and to view a trailer
