SUMMARY:The Listeners Project: Queremos Escucharte (free film)
DESCRIPTION:The Listeners Project: Queremos Escucharte will present a free screening of the documentary film "Protejiendo Nuestras Ra ces: Un Proyecto de Salma Anguiano" (Protecting Our Roots: A Salma Anguiano Project) on Saturday\, May 7 at 4:30 p.m. at Gesa Power House Theatre.\n\n\n\nGrowing up in a migrant working community Salma Anguiana often saw many injustices and unsafe working conditions faced by people in her community. During her first year of college\, Anguiana embarked on a journey to advocate for the community she grew up in. She formed "Protejiendo Nuestras Raices\," and began advocacy efforts to address the unsafe working conditions that people like her parents faced in the workplace. Through this effort she also hoped to create spaces for people in our communities to speak their truths. For so long\, she saw people around her stay quiet due to fear. She wanted to end the cycle and bring light to the atrocities that occur in the workplace\, in our own backyards.\n\n\n\nAnguiano began collecting stories of farmworkers during the COVID-19 Pandemic. It was oftentimes difficult to bring these stories including many from undocumented workers to a wider audience. Anguiano and her collaborators navigated these challenges by making the narrators in the film completely anonymous.\n\n\n\nA facilitated interview with Anguiano will precede a screening of "Protejiendo Nuestras Raices." The audience will be given space to reflect on their experience during pauses throughout the thirty-minute screening. A Q&A session will follow the screening. A resource fair with complimentary refreshments follows at 5:30 p.m. with resource tables hosted by the WWIRC (Walla Walla Immigrant Rights Coalition) and the Blue Mountain Action Council.\n\n\n\nThis event is free and open to the public and is cosponsored by the WWIRC\, the Colectivo de Arte Social\, The Listeners Project: Queremos Escucharte\, the Whitman College and Northwest Archives\, the Associated Students of Whitman College\, Project Pericles\, Hernandez Immigration Law\, LLC\, and the Walla Walla Public Library.
