Benefit Screening of "Truth: Exposing Israeli Apartheid"

Screening of documentary "Truth: Exposing Israeli Apartheid" by local film-maker Wendy Campbell who will be in attendance. This film seeks to reveal what the mainstream media tries to conceal: that Israel is a "racist, anti-democratic, apartheid regime" as in the words spoken by a courageous Israeli Refusenik soldier. This carefully crafted collage of footage and stills taken by brave activists in Palestinian Territories shows with shocking impact the harsh, apartheid conditions forced upon the Palestinians by the Israeli government, all the more disturbing knowing that US tax dollars support this brutal occupation. Historical perspective is provided in the narrative,and a surprising, but compelling, solution is offered for true peace and justice in the area. Footage of the growing pro-Palestinian peace movement in the Bay Area is also included. The film has been edited from its original length of 1 hour 47 minutes, down to 57 minutes. The screening will be preceeded by a talk by long-time activist Dave Kersting on the topic of "What is Zionism?"
