Cinema Politica: Exclusion Cinema Politica: Exclusion

Join Cinema Politica Concordia for the premiere of AGAINST THE TIDE and EXCLUSION: BEYOND THE SILENCE, with both directors in attendance!

Connecting the legacy of Canada's 1923 Chinese Exclusion Act to contemporary anti-Chinese racism, these two powerful documentaries explore immigration, discrimination, family separation, and generations of Chinese-Canadian resistance and community activism.

A timely screening for students and communities interested in Canadian history, Asian diasporas, immigration, racial justice, and grassroots organizing.

Admission by donation ($5-10 suggested, cash only). Wheelchair accessible.
