SUMMARY:World BEYOND War's Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:Join World BEYOND War for our 3rd annual virtual film festival! \nThis year’s “Celebrating Stories of Nonviolence” virtual film festival from March 11-25\, 2023 explores the power of nonviolent action. A unique mix of films explores this theme\, from Gandhi’s Salt March\, to ending war in Liberia\, to civil discourse and healing in Montana. Each week\, we’ll host a live Zoom discussion with key representatives from the films and special guests to answer your questions and explore the topics addressed in the films. Scroll down to learn more about each film and our special guests\, and to purchase tickets! \nHow It Works: \n\n  1 ticket gets you access to all 3 films & panel discussions.\n  1 week before each panel discussion\, you will get the screening link to watch the film on your own time leading up to the live discussion.\n  Then join us live on Zoom each Saturday in March from the 11th-25th to talk with key representatives from the films and special guests! The panel discussions will also be recorded if you can’t join us live.\n\nLearn More at World Beyond War’s Film Festival page. \nDay 1: Discussion of “A Force More Powerful” \nA Force More Powerful is a documentary series on one of the 20th century’s most important and least-known stories: how nonviolent power overcame oppression and authoritarian rule. It includes case studies of movements\, and each case is approximately 30 minutes long. We’ll watch Episode 1\, which contains 3 case studies: \n\nIn India in the 1930s\, after Gandhi had returned from South Africa\, he and his followers adopted a strategy of refusing to cooperate with British rule. Through civil disobedience and boycotts\, they successfully loosened their oppressors’ grip on power and set India on the path to freedom.\nIn the 1960s\, Gandhi’s nonviolent weapons were taken up by black college students in Nashville\, Tennessee. Disciplined and strictly nonviolent\, they successfully desegregated Nashville’s downtown lunch counters in five months\, becoming a model for the entire civil rights movement.\nIn 1985\, a young South African named Mkhuseli Jack led a movement against the legalized discrimination known as apartheid. Their campaign of nonviolent mass action\, and a powerful consumer boycott in the Eastern Cape province\, awakened whites to black grievances and fatally weakened business support for apartheid.
