About the Social Justice Film Series*/: Brought to you by the Center
for Cultural Pluralism, the Fall 2012 Social Justice Film Series theme
is '[Re]Framing OUR Reactions Around Race' and offers participants an
educational opportunity to explore through film and subsequent discourse
and engage issues of identity in its various forms, visible and
invisible. Films selected for the Social Justice Film Series have two
viewings and are generally screened up to a half hour and followed by
an engaged discourse on the themes by the participants. To be respectful
of your time, it is our hope that this entire educational program does
not exceed ninety minutes.
