DECEMBER FILM:
INEQUALITY FOR ALL
THE 4TH FILM IN OUR CORRUPTION OF OUR
DEMOCRACY FILM SERIES
Brought to you by the Advocates for Social Justice Film Project
INEQUALITY FOR ALL By Robert Reich, directed by Jacob Kornbluth
This film comes to us from Robert Reich, a political commentator, economist, professor and author. In this 2013 documentary Reich examines the widening income inequality in the United States and explores what effects this increasing gap has not only on U.S. economy but also American democracy itself. Robert Reich has served in three administrations, that of Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton. He served as Secretary of Labor for Bill Clinton from 1993-1997. He is currently the Chancellor’s Professor of Public Policy at the Goldman School of Public Policy at University of California, Berkeley, teaching a course entitled, “Wealth and Poverty”. This film is full of information communicated in an accessible manner and with a bit of gentle humor. For those of us who are concerned about the distortion of our democracy that our wealth imbalance has wrought and those of us who care about the many among us who struggle to make ends meet this is a “must see” film.
Discussion, as always, follows the viewing of the film.
Please bring whatever you wish to eat. We will offer a snack, not lunch.

NOVEMBER’S FILM:
CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY
The Advocates for Social Justice Film Project is pleased to present the third film in our series on “The Corruption of Our Democracy”. We are delighted to feature another Michael Moore film, “Capitalism: A Love Story”…a bit of a Michael Moore mini film festival. In this 2010 film Moore examines corporate greed, the global economic meltdown and their disastrous effect on American lives. The film explores the social costs of corporate interests pursuing profits at the expense of the social good and the current reality that economic power is held in the hands of the few. Viewers are led to ponder the question of the price our country pays for our love of capitalism. Compelling, this film leads us into an economic understanding of the challenges to our democracy.
Discussion, as always, follows the viewing of the film.
Please bring whatever you wish to eat. We will offer a snack, not lunch. Thanks.
