ITVS Community Cinema Presents A DREAM IN DOUBT by Tami Yeager

It was the first hate-based murder in the wake of September 11, 2001-one of thousands of reported and unreported hate crimes in the years that followed. The victim: a turbaned Sikh man in Mesa Arizona, where his family had sought religious freedom, searching for the American Dream. Meet a family still determined to believe in that dream, even as the nightmare continues for many religious and ethnic minorities in a climate of xenophobia and fear.

Panel Featuring: Dr. JP Singh, Founding Member of The Sikh Center of The San Francisco Bay Area and Jaideep Singh, Acting Director of The Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund.

Co-Sponsors: The Sikh American Legal Defense and Education Fund and The South Asian American FIlm and Arts Association.

Presented By: ITVS Comunity Cinema, KQED Education Network, The Oakland Museum of California, The Oakland Film Office and Hands On Bay Area
