Film Screening: The War You Don't See
When: Saturday, November 19 2011 @ 02:00 PM - Where: San Jose Peace and Justice Center 48 South 7th St San Jose, CA 95112 Description: 'The War You Don't See' was nominated for the 'Documentary Award' at the 2011 One World Media Awards. The film is a powerful and timely investigation into the media's role in war, tracing the history of 'embedded' and independent reporting from the carnage of World War One to the destruction of Hiroshima, and from the invasion of Vietnam to the current war in Afghanistan and disaster in Iraq. As weapons and propaganda become even more sophisticated, the nature of war is developing into an 'electronic battlefield' in which journalists play a key role, and civilians are the victims. But who is the real enemy? On 7 June 2011, the Lannan Foundation in the United States banned the film and cancelled a US visit by John Pilger without explanation. Refreshments will be provided. Suggested Donation: $10 - 20 A fundraiser for the San Jose Peace and Justice Center This event is sponsored by San Jose Peace and Justice Center |
