First Annual Social and Economic Justice Film Festival
Global Women’s Strike/Bay Area, part of the Alliance for Social and
Economic Justice, invites you to take part in the film festival (info
below) to help raise funds to launch a Center for Social and Economic
Justice in the Redstone Labor Temple in SF.
The mission of the San Francisco Social and Economic Justice Film Festival is to provide a platform for films made by independent filmmakers who are exploring and advocating for social and economic justice. The Social and Economic Justice Film Festival highlights films and videos to encourage change around the world and to promote a global culture of equality. The festival will showcase works that challenge exploitative and oppressive social and economic systems and structures on a global and local level.
