Heather Booth: Changing the World
This month’s Reel and Meal, co-sponsored by the Center for Dynamic Community Governance, is excited to bring you a screening of “Heather Booth: Changing the World” in support of Women’s Equality Day (August 26) and the Maryland Year of the Woman. As a special treat, we will have Jacky Grimshaw, mentor to Heather Booth, joining us from Chicago, to engage us during these challenging times.
Filmmaker Lily Rivlin traces the life and work of Heather Booth, activist and community organizer, through Civil Rights, to Women’s Rights, to Immigration Reform. This program, originally scheduled to air in March, was postponed due to the pandemic. We are so pleased that technology is providing us a way to come together to learn, grow, share, and inspire. View the trailer at https://vimeo.com/ondemand/heatherbchangingtheworld.
Join us on Zoom for this special event where we will stream the film, followed by a facilitated community discussion. Register here: https://tinyurl.com/reelandmeal-heatherbooth
