DESCRIPTION:Zoom\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_PtpB8KoGREOTiQqW4Lav2g#/registration\n\nThe 
 film screening will be followed by discussions with Khaled Sabawi, 
 co-screenwriter.\n\nWhen a leaked video of his lecture on the Psychology of 
 Oppression goes viral and sparks accusations of anti-Semitism, tenured 
 Palestinian-American professor Karim Hadawi finds himself at a crossroads 
 with a harrowing ultimatum: issue a public apology to salvage his career or 
 risk losing not only his job but also the custody of his beloved daughter. 
 This unexpected challenge forces Karim to navigate a turbulent territory 
 where principles clash with the pressures of employment and public 
 perception, plunging him into a distressing battle for integrity, family, 
 and the preservation of freedom of 
 speech.\n\n=================================================================\n\nCALL
