Film Screening: My Kashmir

My Kashmir is a film about being young in Kashmir, India, one of the most contentious and militarized regions in the world. For two college students Javaid and Iqbal, a childhood rife with curfews, crossfires and crackdowns has given way to a generation questioning their lack of freedom, while carving a peaceful path to their future. Theirs are the voices of young people who hold the key to Kashmir's future.

GETTING BACK TO WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN OCCUPY**THE RETURN OF LEISURE CAUCUS!!**Haha....Now that I have your attention, There are so many great things happening in the world of Occupy right now, from Strike Debt to the return of working groups like Outreach and Direct Action to the continued work and actions of community based Occupy Movements. It's time we begin hanging out again and building more community. For those of you who remember the beginning of Occupy Wall Street (BLARNEY STONE PUB and RESTAURANT) provided us that space and venue to get to know one another.
