SUMMARY:The Occupation of the American Mind
DESCRIPTION:Join us online for a screening and discussion of “The Occupation of the American Mind.” Together\, we’ll look at how the media shapes U.S. understanding of Israel/Palestine and what that means for our communities. \nOn Wednesday\, August 26 at 6:30 PM\, we invite you to join us virtually for a screening of The Occupation of the American Mind\, a powerful documentary that examines how the Israeli government\, U.S. government\, pro-Israel advocacy organizations\, and American media have shaped the narrative surrounding Israel and Palestine. \nNarrated by Roger Waters\, the film takes a critical look at the public relations strategies and media narratives that have influenced American perceptions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict\, while examining how Palestinian voices and experiences have often been marginalized or distorted. \nBut the conversation doesn’t end when the film does. Following the screening\, we will come together for a discussion about the film\, the role of media and propaganda in shaping public opinion\, and what this means for how Americans understand Palestine and U.S. policy. \nWhether you have followed Palestine for decades or are just beginning to question the narratives you have been presented\, this is an opportunity to watch\, listen\, question\, and engage in meaningful conversation. \n📅 Wednesday\, August 26\, 2026 \n⏰ 6:30 PM \n💻 Virtual Screening (receive link after registration) \n🎬 The Occupation of the American Mind \n💬 Discussion to follow \nCome watch. Come question. Come discuss. \nWe hope you’ll join us and invite others who are interested in understanding the forces that shape what we see\, hear\, and believe about Palestine.
