Join us for a screening of Shoot The People , a documentary capturing renowned photographer and activist Misan Harriman’ s journey documenting global protest movements that drive social change, including Black Lives Matter and the struggle for Palestinian liberation. Following Harriman as he highlights the resilience of grassroots activists fighting for equality, civil rights, and social justice, the film showcases the intersectionality of these movements and their collective power. With historical context, interviews with activists, and explorations of digital activism, the documentary reveals how Harriman’s lens brings the world’s activism to light, inspiring viewers to recognize their own power in shaping a more just society.
