SUMMARY:Film Screening - Standing Above the Clouds
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of Standing Above the Clouds on November 17\, 5:30 – 8:30 pm\, at Morgridge Hall\, WARF Centennial Room 7560\, UW-Madison\, 1205 University Avenue\, Madison\, WI 53706.  Organized by Makamae Sniffen (MEd\, MA)\, the screening is in collaboration with UW-Madison’s Indigenous Student Center\, APIDA Student Center\, and Nelson Institute in celebration of Native November. \n\n\nThe Standing Above the Clouds documentary follows Native Hawaiian mother-daughter activists as they stand to protect Mauna Kea\, a mountain sacred to them\, from the building of the world’s largest telescope. This documentary provides an example of continued Indigenous assertion of sovereignty\, resistance\, and resilience. Stemming from this\, the hope and goal of the documentary is to encourage deeper\, critical conversations around re-matriation\, Indigeneity\, and the importance of elevating and listening to diverse voices. \nThe event is free and will provide light refreshments. The screening will end with a Q&A and reflection. Those interested in attending can RSVP here. \nChannel Foundation grantee Peace is Loud partnered with the Standing Above the Clouds team to leverage the film as a tool to grow and sustain the movement to protect Mauna Kea\, led by film protagonist Pua Case and her organization Mauna Kea Education and Awareness. \nPeace Is Loud is an organization that harnesses the power of media to amplify women’s voices for narrative change.

SUMMARY:Women Cross DMZ Film Screening & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:The Channel Foundation was delighted to announce the April 22\, 2023\, screening and discussion in Madison\, Wisconsin\, of a new documentary film\, Crossings\, about women’s leadership in the process of bringing peace to the Korean Peninsula and featuring long-time Channel partner Women Cross DMZ.   \nThe screening took place April 22\, 2023\, 6 pm\, at the Marquee Cinema\, Union South\, UW-Madison\, 1308 W Dayton St #245\, Madison\, WI 53715\, and was co-presented by the UW Center for East Asian Studies (CEAS) and the Wisconsin Union Directorate (WUD).  The screening was followed by a Q & A session with the director\, Emmy Award-winning filmmaker Deann Borshay Liem\, and Christine Ahn\, Founder/Executive Director of Women Cross DMZ\, and was free and open to the public.\n \nThe info about the WUD screening at Union South can be found here. \nIn Crossings\, a group of international women peacemakers sets out on a risky journey across the demilitarized zone (known as the DMZ) between North and South Korea\, calling for an end to a 70-year war that has divided the Korean peninsula and its people.  Comprised of Nobel Peace Laureates and renowned activists like Gloria Steinem and Ahn\, the intrepid team faces daunting challenges as they forge a path with their Korean sisters toward peace and reconciliation.  \nCrossings is a powerful tool to educate audiences on the history of the unresolved Korean War\, the role of women in forging peace\, and the responsibility of the U.S. to negotiate a peace agreement with North Korea.  As Forbes magazine put it\, “Crossings is an inspiring film about activism – in which a group of women set out to accomplish a seemingly impossible mission and\, despite serious obstacles and setbacks\, succeeds in making an important statement.”  \nMore about the film and past and upcoming screenings can be found here\, and the film’s trailer can be seen here.
