# Future of Food: Film - Panel - Party Thu Nov 11 7:00pm Film/Panel;
9 pm Party $10 Film presales; $10 Party presales ($15 at the door)
Please join Slow Food and Om Organics for an educational and delicious
evening to promote a sustainable local food supply and organic
agriculture.
There’s a revolution going on in the farm fields and on the dinner
tables of America— revolution that’s being fought behind closed doors
of corporate boardrooms and government agencies over the use of
genetically modified organisms in our food. The Future of Food offers an
in-depth look into the disturbing truth behind the unlabeled GMO
products that have quietly filled grocery store shelves over the past
decade.
At the historic Castro Theater in San Francisco, Alice Waters will
introduce the screening of the highly-acclaimed film, followed by a
panel discussion and Q&A with filmmaker Deborah Koons Garcia; Ignacio
Chapela (Assistant Professor of Ecosystem Sciences at UC Berkeley and
who appears in the film); and Michael Pollan (Knight Professor at the UC
Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism, contributing writer to the New
York Times Magazine, and author of The Botany of Desire: A Plant’s Eye
View of the World). Film/panel proceeds benefit Slow Food.
Following the screening, join Om Organics at the after-party to talk
about the film, meet local farmers, sip sumptuous organic beverages, and
taste fresh, organically grown delectables prepared by Sharon Ardiana of
Lime Restaurant and Jamie Lloyd of Besos Foods. There is no charge for
food & drink. Party ticket proceeds benefit Om Organics programs in the
Bay Area. TICKETS and MORE INFO: http://www.OmOrganics.org FILM & PANEL:

# Sat. Nov. 13, 12noon TARGETS OF EMPIRE PROTEST
24th & Mission St. at 24th St BART
Stand in solidarity with all the targets of the empire
from disenfranchised youth in U.S. inner cities to Palestinians
resisting Israeli occupation. time is now to continue the fight against wars abroad and
oppression here at home. People will find themselves struggling to get
by because of the actions and inactions of the U.S. government. As people
in Palestine and Iraq are killed by U.S. made and funded bombs and bullets,
the people of Haiti will be kept from having a democratically elected
government, and prevented from trying otherwise. As the U.S. continues
to wreak havoc in Afghanistan and threaten countries around the globe,
people here at home will struggle for housing, health care, education and jobs.

http://www.indybay.org *ABOUT BAGHDAD* Sun Nov 21 7:30 p $5
@ Station 40 3030b 16th St (& Mission), directly across from BART
In July 2003 Sinan Antoon, an exiled Iraqi writer and poet, returned to
Baghdad to see what has become of his city after wars, sanctions,
decades of oppression and violence, and now occupation. Antoon takes
journey exploring what Iraqis think and feel about the post-war situation
and the complex relationship between the US and Iraq.
About Baghdad is a journey into the hearts and minds of the hundreds of
Iraqis we encountered in Baghdad. In the simmering heat of Baghdad’s
summer, Iraqis, of various ethnic and political backgrounds and
orientations, speak of past horrors and present fears.
Reflections on the traumatic legacy of dictatorship, sanctions and war,
also reflect resilience and humanity of a people who were, for decades,
dehumanized and disappeared behind Saddam’s image. From poets to
politicians, cabbies to communists, a retired senior citizen to an
American soldier at Bremmer’s HQ, "About Baghdad" navigates the dire,
and oft misunderstood and misrepresented, straits separating, yet
involving, both Iraqis and Americans.
