[Hac-announce] USNH Cinema: Harvest of Empire

[Richard Siddall]

As you may know, David and June Schafer run the USNH Cinema event on the 
first Friday of each month at 700 Hartford Turnpike in Hamden.

This is David's description of tomorrow night's event:

"Our second USNH Cinema of the season is set for Friday, October 4, at 
6:30 p.m.), in the USNH Social Hall. The film, “Harvest of Empire: A 
History of Latinos in America,” argues powerfully that pressures for 
emigration from seven states of Latin America have long been partly the 
direct result of harmful U.S. interventions in those countries. Among 
many moving interviews TV journalist Geraldo Rivera describes the 
experiences of his own family as immigrants from Puerto Rico. Also 
prominent among the cast are NPR reporter Maria Hinojosa, Rev. Jesse 
Jackson, ACLU director Anthony Romero, and 1992 Nobel Peace Prize winner 
Rigoberta Menchu. The potluck dinner will begin at 6:30 and the 
92-minute film will start promptly at 7:00. Afterward we’ll have a full 
discussion. Come and bring a friend!"
