DORR Political Film Club – The Silence of Others @ Silence of the Others
Jun 3 @ 5:00 pm – 6:00 pm

The DORR Political Film Club meets monthly to discuss a movie. Participants can view the movie on social media sites, such as Netflix, Prime, You Tube, Apple, etc. The group meets monthly to discuss the movie.

 

The group is continuing their (anti-)war theme, this time moving west to Spain, the Spanish Civil War, and the “The Silence of Others” (2018, Netflix:  https://www.netflix.com/watch/81086605?trackId=14277281&tctx=-97%2C-97%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C%2C81086605
Executively produced by Pedro Almodovar, “The Silence of Others” follows a lawsuit filed to address the oppression, torture, and murder of an estimated 100,000 people during Franco’s 40-year dictatorship in Spain. In the background is the 1977 Spanish amnesty law, known as “the pact of forgetting,” which prohibits legal action for crimes committed during the country’s Civil War, and has been a “formidable obstacle to justice.” “For much of the population – including the survivor who passes his torturer’s home every day on the way to market, the children of forcibly disappeared parents found buried in mass graves, and parents still searching for their children seized at birth and handed to Franco’s allies – there is no peace in silence” (official film synopsis).
The documentary won awards for Best Documentary and Peace Film Prize Winner at the Berlin International Film Festival 2018.
A classic on the same topic, “The Spanish Earth,” (1938 YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MTKtS4WtK_c), is a possible pairing for folks who have time to view two films. Narrated by Ernest Hemmingway, “The Spanish Earth” documents the Republican fight against Franco as it unfolded in the 1930s.
We look forward to a lively conversation about the Spanish Civil War, resistance, justice, and reparations.
DORR’s political film club is hosted by DORR member Mik Jordahl (Attorney) and Board member Frankie Riemer (Professor). We’ll send ZOOM invites a few days before our June 3 conversation.

MARCH – WOMENS MARCH SEDONA @ Gather at the Corner
Jun 25 @ 9:00 am – 11:00 am

WE ARE MARCHING!

Saturday, June 25 at 9AM
Gather at the corner of Route 89A and Northview Road 
(by Jack Jameson Memorial Park).
We will march to 2575 Route 89A for brief

They really did it.

We knew it was coming, but now it is official.  The Conservatives on the Supreme Court of the United States have overturned a basic health care right that has been in place for nearly 50 years.  This will be the first time in our country’s history that a generation of women will come of age with FEWER rights than the preceding generation.

Half of the states in our country are poised to move quickly to ban abortion. The SCOTUS decision has already “triggered” laws in South Dakota, Louisiana and Kentucky that immediately outlaw abortion.  Missouri’s State Attorney General moved to enact that state’s trigger law within minutes of the Supreme Court ruling. Thirteen states are moving to outlaw abortion within the next 30 days.  Seven more are poised to act within the next few months.  Arizona, Michigan and Wisconsin are among the 10 states that have pre-Roe abortion bans that are now expected to take effect.

In Arizona, it is unclear whether all abortions will be banned based on a law that is still on the books from the 1800’s or only those after 15 weeks, will be outlawed, as per the recent legislation signed by Gov. Ducey.

Women will be forced to travel across taste lines, in some cases hundreds of miles to access the health care they need.  Those without the means to do so will be forced by the state to carry their pregnancies to term.  This chaos will create a public health emergency as women’s lives, health, and futures are dictated by the states in which they live.

Jul 5 @ 6:00 pm

Join us at KSB, 360 Brewer Rd, Sedona on Tuesday, July 5 at 6:00 pm. Voters unable to attend in person will be able to watch the forum and ask questions via THIS ZOOM LINK.

Keep Sedona Beautiful (KSB), Northern Arizona Climate Change Alliance (NAZZCA) and the Sustainability Alliance will co-host a Mayoral Candidate Forum: Environmental Changes and Sedona’s Climate Action Plan.

The Mayoral Candidate Forum will address the City’s response to the threats of climate change. Sedona adopted its Climate Action Plan (CAP) in July 2021. The Climate Action Plan (CAP) “sets a goal to cut Sedona’s greenhouse gas emissions by 50% by 2030. Reaching this target—which aligns with the international scientific recommendation for preventing the worst climate change impacts—will require involvement and commitment from the entire city. Local government, residents, businesses, and community leaders must work together to bring forth innovative and impactful solutions that work for Sedona” (sedonaaz.gov).

Forum moderator will be KSB President Craig Swanson. The Forum will involve a brief welcome, an opening round of one-minute self-introductions, and candidate responses to Climate-Action oriented questions. Audience members will then have an opportunity to pose questions. The public is invited and there is no charge for admission. Campaign literature and voter registration forms will also be available to attendees.
