Brewing Solidarity

Join us for the movie screening and follow-up discussion of this wonderful award-winning film, Heart of Sky, Heart of Earth. This will be a evening of Canada-Guatemala solidarity. After the film, we will be discussing topics of Mayan culture, Latin American mining, and Canada’s involvement with wicked problems.

Come out for a thought provoking and enlightening evening! You most definitely will be in good company!

Following the movie we will be hosting an amazing SOLIDARITY RAFFLE!

All the proceeds will go to our Geography 495 Solidarity Project. Currently, we are collaborating with BC CASA, a solidarity group connected with a coffee co-op in Guatemala called the Campesino Committee of the Highlands (CCDA). Our goal vis-a-vis BC CASA this year is to help the CCDA raise enough money to bring a second member of their committee for their solidarity-network-building visit this March, in order to train and prepare members for future success of this social justice movement. We are also planning events that will allow the visitors to talk on behalf of their progress in Guatemala and to educate students here at UBC about the connections that exist between Canada and Guatemala.
