DESCRIPTION:San Francisco Premiere.\n\nDiscussion with: Leah Mahan, director; Derrick 
 Evans, Turkey Creek; Julian Mocine McQueen, Director of Education & 
 Outreach, Green For All; Judy Hatcher, Director, Pesticide Action Network; 
 additional guests to be announced.\n\n'Come Hell or High Water' follows the 
 painful but inspiring journey of Derrick Evans, a Boston teacher who moves 
 home to coastal Mississippi when the graves of his ancestors are bulldozed 
 to make way for the sprawling city of Gulfport. Bay Area filmmaker Leah 
 Mahan worked on the documentary over the course of a decade, as Derrick and 
 his neighbors stand up to powerful corporate interests and politicians and 
 face ordeals that include Hurricane Katrina and the BP oil disaster. This 
 film is about their struggle for self-determination and environmental 
 justice and shows the resilience of a community that stands together for 
 their rights.\n\n"This powerful documentary illustrates a classic case of 
 environmental injustice and exposes raw in-your-face Mississippi racial 
 politics. Come Hell or High Water is a perfect lesson that we are not 
 living in a post-racial era." ~ Dr. Robert Bullard, 'father of 
 environmental justice'\n\nWatch trailer
