Shelter-In-Place Virtual Film Series and Arkansas Peace and Justice Memorial Movement are proud to be the Arkansas sponsors of this national film screening and dialogue on the intersection of reproductive justice and faith. No matter where you choose to stand within that intersection, we must all decide that it is vitally important for us to converse with each other instead of yelling at each other.

"UNDER G-D: Breaking Barriers in Faith & Reproductive Justice," a powerful documentary from Paula Eiselt & Darcy McKinnon, follows legal challenges to Dobbs rooted in religious freedom. Join in for a special, virtual, impact event on November 14th and hear from powerful, religious voices advocating for reproductive justice in their places of worship! As well as media makers telling diverse, abortion stories.

The Holocaust survivor Elie Wiesel did not believe in collective guilt. Instead, he asked for repair, and for holding the post-World War II generation of Germans responsible “not for the past, but for the way it remembers the past. And for what it does with the memory of the past.” Other societies and communities have taken up Wiesel’s call—at the national level, South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Argentina’s efforts to prosecute Dirty War military leaders, and at the local level, movements like the Greensboro Truth and Reconciliation Commission in North Carolina and land back efforts in the Pacific Northwest. What comes after we remember, from apology and forgiveness to reparations and justice?

Benjamin W. Rawlins Professor of Communication Andre E. Johnson, Monument Lab co-founder and artist Ken Lum, and reparations leader Robin Rue Simmons join Zócalo and the National Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis to discuss what repair looks like, and how different people and places have stumbled and succeeded in its pursuit.
