SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:With God Loves Uganda\, Academy Award-winning filmmaker Roger Ross Williams (Music by Prudence) explores the role of the American Evangelical movement in fueling Uganda’s terrifying turn towards biblical law and the proposed death penalty for homosexuality. Thanks to charismatic religious leaders and a well-financed campaign\, these draconian new laws and the politicians that peddle them are winning over the Ugandan public. But these dangerous policies and the money that fuels them aren’t coming from Africa; they’re being imported from some of America’s largest megachurches. \nUsing vérité\, interviews\, and hidden camera footage\, the film allows American religious leaders and their young missionaries that make up the “front lines in a battle for billions of souls” to explain their positions in their own words. Shocking and enlightening\, touching and horrifying\, God Loves Uganda is a searing look at the role of American evangelical missionaries in the persecution of gay Africans. \nGOD LOVES UGANDA\nCFI Toronto screening followed by short conversation on the current situation and what we can do\, featuring: \nAndrea Houston – Journalist from XTRA!\nJohn Nicolas – Pride Uganda \nWhere?

SUMMARY:Film Screening and Discussion: Sons of Perdition
DESCRIPTION:In the desert of Utah hides Colorado City\, the oldest polygamist compound in the United States. Here men have plural wives and raise their children by the strict code of the Fundamentalist Latter Day Saint religion (FLDS). \nAfter his rise to power\, the prophet Warren Jeffs began a systematic effort to cleanse his flock. He banned schooling\, books\, recreations\, and excommunicated prominent men\, marrying their women to other men. Hundreds of teenage boys were exiled to the streets\, giving up their families and salvation. \nSons of Perdition follows three boys after they leave Colorado City.  With limited educations and rarely a stable address\, the obstacles are enormous.  All the boys have big dreams—starting with the hope of attending high school—but what they want most is contact with their families. For one teen in the film\, this means numerous attempts to help his fourteen-year-old sister escape before an arranged marriage. \nWith unprecedented access\, Sons of Perdition takes audiences on a three-year-journey into the lives of these remarkable teens\, providing the inside analysis to make this intimate portrait a big story—a timely\, critical look at faith\, family and religious exile in mainstream America. \nWhen: Friday August 16th\, 7pm \nWhere: Raindance Toronto (276 Carlaw Ave. Suite 222)\n \nHow Much: $5 Donation

SUMMARY:Film Screening: The Revisionaries
DESCRIPTION:The theory of evolution and a re-write of US history are caught in the crosshairs when an unabashed creationist seeks re-election as\nchairman of America’s most influential board of education. \nIn Austin\, Texas\, fifteen people influence what is taught to the next generation of American children. Once every decade\, the highly politicized Texas State Board of Education rewrites the teaching and textbook standards for its nearly 5 million schoolchildren. And when it comes to textbooks\, what happens in Texas affects the nation as a whole. \nDon McLeroy\, a dentist\, Sunday school teacher\, and avowed young-earth creationist\, leads the Religious Right charge. After briefly serving on his local school board\, McLeroy was elected to the Texas State Board of Education and later appointed chairman. During his time on the board\, McLeroy has overseen the adoption of new science and history curriculum standards\, drawing national attention and placing Texas on the front line of the so-called “culture wars.” \nIn his last term\, McLeroy\, aided by Cynthia Dunbar\, an attorney from Houston and professor of Law at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University\, finds himself not only fighting to change what Americans are taught\, but also fighting to retain his seat on the board. Challenged by Kathy Miller\, president of the Texas Freedom Network\, and Ron Wetherington\, an anthropology professor from Southern Methodist University in Texas\, McLeroy faces his toughest term yet. \nTHE REVISIONARIES follows the rise and fall of some of the most controversial figures in American education through some of their most tumultuous intellectual battles.
