Subject: [Hac-announce] USNH Cinema: Harvest of Empire

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!"

Regards,

	Richard Siddall
