Sunday, January 21, 7pm, this on-line event requires advance registration

You must watch the film on your own before the event.

Link to the film is in the below information.

For this Virtual Documentary Night we have voted to talk about the documentary, The Invisible Vegan. This documentary explores the problem of unhealthy dietary patterns in the African-American community, foregrounding the health and wellness possibilities enabled by plant-based vegan diets and lifestyle choices. Here is a link to where you can watch it for free.

This is a Voting Night, which means at the end of the night we will brainstorm and vote to decide as a group what we will watch the following month, so please come ready with your recommendation. The only requirement is that the film must be available to watch online for free. If you need any ideas, you can search through the Flyers Page on the Community Documentary Night website. It is full of flyers based around certain themes and each flyer is full of documentary posters, which are hyperlinked to where you watch the films for free. Something to consider is that next month is February, which is Black History Month and there is also V Day on February 14th. Check out the Black History Month flyer and the V Day flyer if you’re interested in recommending a film in honor of these holidays.

Again, you must watch the film on your own before the event. We will be meeting over Zoom, where we will break out into small discussion groups. We will do multiple rounds of small group discussion, then close out the night with larger group discussion. You must RSVP to access the Zoom link for the event.

This event is posted in multiple meetup groups, and on Eventbrite, as well as with members of the Community Documentary Night email list. (Message me if interested in joining the email list) Therefore, this RSVP list is not representative of how many people will be attending the event. So even if you only see one person RSVPed in this meetup group, there will always be others in attendance from other groups. We tend to have at least 20 on average. By inviting numerous groups that increases the likelihood that those in attendance will be from varying backgrounds and beliefs. This is done purposefully to provide everyone with the opportunity to hear a wide range of perspectives.

This event is open to all who are open to all. The one thing we ask is that people allow others to get their full thoughts out and that any disagreement is voiced in a civil way. Check out the Community Documentary Night website for more info or links to previously shown documentaries.

Thank you and hope to see you there!
