Mn-prog-events Mailing List: Movies in the Park that Make a Difference Tue 6/16 9pm Seward-Mpls

[Oxfam Action Corps - MN (oxfam.mn]

Greetings all,

Join Oxfam Action Corps - Minnesota and ONE Twin Cities for Movies in
the Park (...that make a difference) at 9 PM on Tuesday, June 16th at
Matthews Park (2318 29th Ave. S., Minneapolis).

This free community event features two empowering films. First, watch
a preview of Oxfam America's Sisters on the Planet, which tells the
story of four inspiring women living on the front lines of climate
change. The evening's feature film is Sons of Lwala, the
critically-acclaimed documentary of two brothers who, after earning
medical degrees in the United States, return home to Kenya to finish
establishing a health clinic started by their father who has fallen
ill to AIDS.

Both movies deal with serious subjects often ignored or misunderstood
- but offer a message a hope. This will be the theme of this fun
evening: the real potential to help create lasting solutions to
poverty and injustice with meaningful action, right here in Minnesota.
So come watch these amazing films with us and, if you choose to, stay
to learn how you can make a difference without opening your pocketbook
from volunteers of the ONE Campaign and Oxfam Action Corps.

Hope to see you there!
