[Sosfbay-discuss] FW: Doc + Discussion Event: @ Joyce Ellington Library Wed 8.12.09 5:45pm

[Drew Johnson]

Aiesha is one of our newest Greens -- she registered at the Juneteenth
festival.  She's got a huge amount of energy and enthusiasm and has been
doing these outreach events roughly monthly for awhile now.  Please
consider participating in these events.  Unfortunately I can't make this
one due to prior commitments, but I have it on the good word of my mom
that this documentary "Sick Around the World" is particularly excellent...

I was able to stop by the Yard Sale last last Saturday and meet Carol and
a couple of other cool people. I just wanted to let you know I will be
hosting another doc event at the library next Wednesday, invite is below:


I've been watching this healthcare reform debate play out in the news, and
thought this doc would be perfect for this months discussion!

See you at the library next Wednesday, August 12th. The documentary will
start around 5:45/6pm (There's an event preceding us in the community
room)


PBS Frontline: Sick Around the World (2008)

With the U.S. health care system needing urgent care, "Frontline" looks to
other leading capitalist democracies to see how their health care systems
operate and whether those systems might be a model for much-needed reform
at home. But are Americans willing to accept taxation or socialized
medicine? Will U.S. insurance providers undermine change? Correspondent
T.R. Reid examines systems in the U.K., Japan, Switzerland, Germany and
Taiwan.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Next month's event will take place on Saturday, September 5th @ 1pm. More
than likely, it will be the The Garden, the film that wasn't yet released
for July's Documentary showing!



Peace,
Aiesha
