Palestine Film Series:
The Occupation of the American Mind

el lunes 13 de noviembre @ 7:00 PM

Join Las Vegas DSA, Nevadans for Palestinian Liberation and Fifth Sun Project on November 13th at 7pm for the third film in our Palestine Film Series, The Occupation of the American Mind.

Israel’s ongoing military occupation of Palestinian territory and repeated invasions of the Gaza strip have triggered a fierce backlash against Israeli policies virtually everywhere in the world – except the United States. The Occupation of the American Mind takes an eye-opening look at this critical exception, zeroing in on pro-Israel public relations efforts within the U.S. The film explores how the Israeli government, the U.S. government, and the pro-Israel lobby have joined forces, often with very different motives, to shape American media coverage of the conflict in Israel’s favor. From the U.S.-based public relations campaigns that emerged in the 1980s to today, the film provides a sweeping analysis of Israel’s decades-long battle for the hearts, minds, and tax dollars of the American people in the face of widening international condemnation of its increasingly right-wing policies.

There will be a group discussion after the screening.
