SUMMARY:IJPC Movie Night: Comprehensive Immigration Reform
DESCRIPTION:The case of Maribel Tuijllo Diaz broke the hearts of many people as we all watched a close-knit family be torn apart by a broken immigration system. Both Democrat and Republican officials in Ohio rallied on Maribel’s behalf\, so the question now is “When will Congress take action for comprehensive immigration reform?”\nJoin IJPC as we watch Frontline’s investigation “Immigration Battle” explaining how the 2013 bi-partisan legislation for immigration reform failed. We’ll have discussion as we watch the film to learn from our history and strategize for our future.\nDonations welcomed.

SUMMARY:Under The Gun Screening
DESCRIPTION:From Ceasefire: “Big news! Sandy Phillips\, the amazing gun violence prevention advocate who testified against the SCOTUS confirmation of gun lobby darling Neil Gorsuch\, is coming to Ohio for events across our state — including this one in Cincinnati! We’re teaming up for community events where we’ll be screening the award-winning documentary Under The Gun\, giving updates about pending state and federal gun legislation\, and giving Sandy the chance to share her story with folks across Ohio. \nLonnie and Sandy Phillips’ daughter\, Jessica Ghawi\, was murdered in the Aurora\, Colorado theater massacre in 2012. Since then\, they have become advocates for common-sense gun laws in America. Their non-profit\, Jessi’s Message\, allows them to take their trailer and travel the country telling their story and working with fellow victims and survivors of violence. \nUnder the Gun examines the events and people who have kept the gun debate fierce and the progress slow\, even as gun deaths and mass shootings continue to increase. Through the lens of families impacted by the mass shootings in Newtown\, Aurora\, Isla Vista and Tucson\, as well as those who experience daily gun violence in Chicago\, the documentary looks at why politicians are finding it difficult to act and what is being done at the state and local levels. The film is executive produced and narrated by Katie Couric and directed by Stephanie Soechtig.” \nFacebook Event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1480290522022506/

SUMMARY:Pro-Action Café
DESCRIPTION:Now that you’ve attended one or more Rethinking Racism Open Space events\, or even if you’ve found this for the first time\, you might have found yourself thinking\, “Where can I go with my passion and energy?” “What can I do?” Rethinking Racism has been thinking about this\, too. We have a plan and you’re invited to participate! \nThe Pro-Action Café is a chance to bring any of your musings\, ideas\, projects and dreams to the table and have the opportunity to talk with others about their thoughts and ideas. Perhaps a workable plan will emerge and you will have some people to work with you – or you may find a project or plan that “strikes home” with you\, in which case you can be part of a group working on something about which you feel passionate. There will also be people who have experience and a level of expertise bringing their talents to the table in the form of information\, the “right” questions\, and recommendations. \nThe attached flyer gives the basic time\, place and registration information. Additionally\, we want you to know that\, because of the nature of the evening\, this is a limited attendance event. We can accommodate 50 people. RSVPs through eventbrite are necessary. \nOur hope is that out of this past year of talking\, sharing and listening\, will come action that will contribute to the raising up of equality and equity in our city.

SUMMARY:Revolution of Values Potluck
DESCRIPTION:On April 4th 1967\, Dr. Martin Luther King gave an impassioned speech before a crowd on the steps of Riverside Church in New York City condemning the atrocity of the Vietnam War. He called for people to be obstinate in the face of the evils of warfare\, and said that\, “We as a nation must undergo a radical revolution of values. We must rapidly begin the shift from a ‘thing-oriented’ society to a ‘person-oriented’ society. When machines and computers\, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people\, the giant triplets of racism\, materialism\, and militarism are incapable of being conquered.” It has become grossly apparent today that these inhuman triplets of despair have shown their stubborn implantation within the very fabric of our society. \nTo honor Dr. King’s charge to help our society embark on a “revolution of values”\, IJPC will host a potluck to reflect on Dr. King’s speech. There is no better way to foster discussion\, invite open-mindedness\, and bring about awareness than by engaging in humanity’s oldest expression of good fellowship: a meal. IJPC invites you and your friends to join us to listen to excerpts of Dr. King’s speech\, discuss its meanings and the pertinence it has within our society\, while enjoying a community potluck.

SUMMARY:Daniel Rudd: Calling a Church to Justice
DESCRIPTION:In May of 1890\, The Christian Solider\, an African American newspaper\, identified the Catholic journalist and activist Daniel Arthur Rudd as the “greatest negro Catholic in America.” Yet many Catholics today are unaware of Rudd’s efforts to bring about positive social change during the early decades of the Jim Crow era. \nDr. Gary Agee\, Associate Professor of Church History at Anderson University will present a compelling look at the life and work of this visionary who found inspiration in his Catholic faith to fight for the principles of liberty and justice.
