Join us on August 25th at the Rotary Centre for the Arts in Kelowna for the film
screening of “The Encampments.”
The Encampments offers an urgent, intimate portrait of America’s student
movement, ignited at Columbia University as students protested their universities’
ties to Israel’s ongoing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Their actions sparked
a nationwide uprising, with encampments spreading across hundreds of campuses.
As the illegal attack and genocide in Gaza continues to progress it is important to take a stand for human rights. The right to protest is also under threat globally, a healthy part of democracy.
Featuring detained activist Mahmoud Khalil, alongside professors, whistleblowers, and organizers, the film captures the deeper stakes of a historic moment that continues to reverberate across the globe.
