Free Showing: Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land
The First Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm the UUCOC hosts free screenings of socially relevant films followed by a moderated discussion. (donations accepted)

Peace, Propaganda & the Promised Land provides a striking comparison of U.S. and international media coverage of the crisis in the Middle East, zeroing in on how structural distortions in U.S. coverage have reinforced false perceptions of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This pivotal documentary exposes how the foreign policy interests of American political elites--oil, and a need to have a secure military base in the region, among others--work in combination with Israeli public relations strategies to exercise a powerful influence over how news from the region is reported.
