Amnesty International Presents "Torturing Democracy"

11/04/2009 19:00

Local Amnesty International activists will present a screening of the acclaimed documentary "Torturing Democracy" at the Oak Street Cinema on Nov 4th at 7 pm.  Discussion to follow the film.

"Torturing Democracy" relies on the documentary record to connect the dots in an investigation of harsh interrogations of prisoners in U.S. custody - and points straight to the top. Timely and powerful, at its heart the film is about the rule of law - and how the government pushed it aside despite the fierce resistance of many on the inside.

Irena Salina's award-winning documentary investigation into what experts label the most important political and environmental issue of the 21st Century - The World Water Crisis.

Speaker: Deb Swackhamer, professor, Environmental Chemistry, School of Public Health, University of Minnesota
