The Other City - Free Film Screening tonight April 27th in Columbia City

Excuse the second posting today but I felt this was an important event that some of you may enjoy attending tonight (or on May 17th).  HIV/AIDS is still a health crisis and this film addresses the story of those that are continuing to fight the good fight.  It is followed by a discussion and looks like a good event to be attending.  Ms T.

THE OTHER CITY
FREE SCREENING
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 27th  and TUESDAY, MAY 17th
Doors open @ 6PM
Come to a free community screening of the new documentary, THE OTHER CITY- a tribute to those who stand up to fight the spread of HIV/AIDS every day.
In every city, there’s another city that visitors rarely see. But this other city isn’t just anywhere – it’s in Washington, D.C. The very city that is home to the capital of the most powerful country in the world has an HIV/AIDS rate that is not only the nation’s highest, but rivals some African countries.

THE OTHER CITY tells the stories of people who haven’t let lack of government assistance stop them, and have taken matters into their own hands. This film was directed by Susan Koch and produced by BET founder Sheila C. Johnson.

This 90 minute documentary will take place at Life Enrichment Bookstore on Wednesday, April 27th and at Mount Zion Baptist Church on Tuesday, May 17th.

Both screenings will be preceded by a community discussion. We will also feature community based organizations that will provide information on HIV/AIDS testing, education, resources, programs, etc.
