VIEWS FROM PALESTINE
January 7 @ 6:00 pm - 10:00 pm

from the river to the sea project is a global series of screenings/presentations in solidarity with Palestine working to support oppressed narratives, initiate dialogues, nurture systems of care, and draw upon our audiences’ proactive support to uncover ways to organize towards our collective liberation, from Turtle Island to Palestine.

In order to elucidate narratives otherwise blurred by xenophobic, anti-Arab, and Islamophobic media, we are calling on our national and international art community to join us in responding to the urgency of this matter thoughtfully and proactively. In doing so, we hope that we can maintain a long-term movement in support of the Palestinian fight for self-determination, a fight we know has a long road ahead.

Screenings in Windsor, a city built on the traditional territory of the Anishnaabeg people of the Three Fires Confederacy (Ojibwe, Potawatomi, and Odawa) will work to bring together our community to foster discussion, understanding, and give us tools for collective action to stand against genocide.

Entrance will be by donation, fundraising for Medical Aid for Palestine.

Children are welcome! There will be a colouring station and facilitator present.

Artcite exhibition space is fully accessible, except for the bathroom, which is down a flight of stairs.

VIEWS FROM PALESTINE offers alternative perspectives of the Palestinian experience, tracing individual stories as they encounter major historical timelines.

This program aims to trace the thread of history through stories that have been sidelined by mass media and grand narratives.
