<<First Name>>, 

Join us at our late summer virtual film screening of “The Connectivity Project,” featuring the episode titled “Speak Out!” on August 17th at 6 PM PST. This short film focuses on the importance of clean air in North Portland, and the activists that are persisting to fight for it. Watch a short trailer to this episode of the film series here

In this film, director Rose Madrone follows an inspired indigenous high school student in Portland Oregon, who is influenced by the actions of Lois Gibbs of the 1970’s, a grassroots activist and organizer in the resistance of devastating pollution in Love Canal, New York. Lois’s story was a catalyst for this Roosevelt HS student and her class to go to the state legislature to apply pressure for change and advocate for clean air for her school and community. Standing up for what they knew was right!
