About the event

We will have our first meet and greet for Activist Film Collective on February 20th at 6pm. The meeting will take place through Zoom. Please RSVP to receive the zoom invite. This meeting is for anyone interested in joining The Activist Film Collective, a new St. John’s based film screening collective. The goal of the group is to amplify the work of marginalized film-makers and to bring people together around issues of social justice, systemic oppression, and collective liberation! 

We recently hosted our first ever event, a screening of Three Promises by Yousef Srouji in St. John’s, at Memorial University. There were 25 attendees and the film was followed by a panel discussion. There was a lot of positive feedback around this event, with a demand for an online showing. Our intention is to meet that demand by showing Three Promises online, which would be available to anyone in NL.

If you'd like to help shape this new film screening collective from the ground up,  learn more about helping out, suggest a film for screening, or just see what the group is all about, this meet and greet is for you! All are welcome. No particular experience expected.

We respectfully acknowledge the land on which we gather as the ancestral homelands of the Beothuk, whose culture has been lost forever and can never be recovered. We also acknowledge the island of Ktaqmkuk (Newfoundland) as the unceded, traditional territory of the Beothuk and the Mi'kmaq. And we acknowledge Labrador as the traditional and ancestral homelands of the Innu of Nitassinan, Inuit of Nunatsiavut, and Inuit of NunatuKavut. We recognize all First Peoples who were here before us, those who live with us now, and the seven generations to come. As First Peoples have done since time immemorial, we strive to be responsible stewards of the land and to respect the cultures, ceremonies, and traditions of all who call it home. As we open our hearts and minds to the past, we commit ourselves to working in a spirit of truth and reconciliation to make a better future for all.

(Borrowed with gratitude from First Light)
