The Right to Read, Join Us In An On-Campus Film Screening 3/12

Posted on March 10, 2024 | Filed under Archive

How do children learn how to read? Something that might seem straightforward has been at the center of an ongoing battle about literacy instruction in public schools for decades and at the forefront of many political campaigns of previous presidential campaigns.

The documentary film, “The Right to Read,” highlights the work of an NAACP activist and educator, a first grade teacher, and two families as they set out to find the best way to achieve literacy for ALL children.

Currently in the U.S., 37% of 4th graders read at a level below the lowest performance level, and 54% of Americans between the ages of 16 and 74 lack literacy proficiency (below a 6th grade reading level).

Please join us in viewing this timely and compelling documentary. Tuesday, March 12 from 6-8 p.m. in Quigley Hall Auditorium.

Sponsored by Allegheny College’s Education Studies program, The Center for Political Participation, and Allegheny College’s Law & Policy Program.

International Film Festival presents “200 Meters” 2/29

Posted on February 28, 2024 | Filed under Archive

Week five of the 2024 International Film Festival is here! The final film is in Arabic!
The fifth film is “200 Meters” directed by Ameen Nayfeh.

The movie starts at 7 p.m. at The Movies at Meadville, 11155 Highline Drive, Meadville, PA 16335. This film is free and open to the public. Free shuttles will depart campus on N. Main at the top of Brooks Walk at 6:10 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. Students using the 6:10 p.m. shuttle will get a $5 gift certificate to use on snacks at The Movies!

2022, Drama, 1h 36m
Awards: 19 wins & 6 nominations
90% TOMATOMETER
82% AUDIENCE SCORE

About the film:
Mustafa, a Palestinian construction worker, lives 200 meters away from his wife Salwa and their children in villages separated by the Israeli separation wall. Mustafa’s wife and children live on the Israeli side of the wall, while Mustafa lives on the West Bank side. To cross over into Israel, Mustafa depends on a work permit. However, one day, while crossing the Israeli checkpoint, Mustafa is denied on a technicality and loses his permit. He then gets a call every parent dreads: his son has been injured and brought to a hospital in Israel. Mustafa must figure out how to cross over to reach his family. Stopping at nothing to reach his child, a 200-meter distance becomes a 200 kilometer odyssey, as the increasingly desperate Mustafa attempts to smuggle himself to the other side of the wall. Featuring a magnetic central performance by Ali Suliman, Ameen Nayfeh’s debut feature film expertly casts “one man’s story as a reflection of a collective experience” (Variety) and shares the struggles of the Palestinian people, while maintaining the tender family drama at its core.

We hope you can make it to the final film of the 2024 International Film Festival!
Thank you to all of you who made it out to any of the movies!
See you next year!

International Film Festival Presents – Society of the Snow 2/22

Posted on February 21, 2024 | Filed under Archive

Week four of the 2024 International Film Festival is here! This weeks film is in Spanish! The fourth film is “Society of the Snow” directed by J.A. Bayona. The movie starts at 7 pm at The Movies at Meadville, 11155 Highline Drive, Meadville, PA 16335. This film is free and open to the public. Free shuttles will depart campus on N. Main at the top of Brooks Walk at 6:10 pm and 6:30 pm. Students using the 6:10 pm shuttle will get a $5 gift certificate to use on snacks at the Movies!

Some more information: In 1972, Uruguayan Air Force Flight 571, which had been chartered to fly a rugby team to Chile, crashed in the heart of the Andes. Only 29 of its 45 passengers survived the accident. Trapped in one of the most hostile and inaccessible environments on the planet, they have to resort to extreme measures to stay alive.

  • RATED R -(Violent/Disturbing Material | Brief Graphic Nudity)
  • 2023, Drama/Adventure, Biography; 2h 24m
  • Released in December 2023
  • Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes with a 91% score on the tomatometer!
  • Nominated for 2 Oscars
  • Nominated for BAFTA Award
  • 37 wins & 64 nominations total

Critics Consensus- Society of the Snow brings masterful technical skill to bear on its tale of real-life tragedy, but none of that spectacle comes at the expense of its simple, powerful message.
Audience Says- An outstanding recreation of a grueling true story, Society of the Snow isn’t the first film to dramatize these events, but it might be the best.

Don’t miss this extraordinary story!

______________________________________________________________________________________________________

There have been some changes to the lineup of films, and the last film of the festival will be the Arabic movie called “200 Meters.”

About the Movie: Mustafa, a Palestinian construction worker, lives 200 meters away from his wife Salwa and their children in villages separated by the Israeli separation wall. Mustafa’s wife and children live on the Israeli side of the wall, while Mustafa lives on the West Bank side. To cross over into Israel, Mustafa depends on a work permit. However, one day, while crossing the Israeli checkpoint, Mustafa is denied on a technicality and loses his permit. He then gets a call every parent dreads: his son has been injured and brought to a hospital in Israel. Mustafa must figure out how to cross over to reach his family. Stopping at nothing to reach his child, a 200 meter distance becomes a 200 kilometer odyssey, as the increasingly desperate Mustafa attempts to smuggle himself to the other side of the wall. Featuring a magnetic central performance by Ali Suliman, Ameen Nayfeh’s debut feature film expertly casts “one man’s story as a reflection of a collective experience” (Variety) and shares the struggles of the Palestinian people, while maintaining the tender family drama at its core.

Political Friendship Card Game 2/22

Posted on February 21, 2024 | Filed under Archive

The Center for Political Participation invites you to the debut of the Political Friendship Game, a card game designed to help us think about where we might share interests and goals with our fellow citizens. Just as importantly, it’s a game that helps us think about what we can do when our interests and goals may lead us to disagree (even disagree strongly) with one another. The game begins at 7 pm in Quigley Hall 122.

This game was designed by Reagan Grace Wheat, a Law & Policy Student, and is based on the concept of political friendship advocated by democratic theorist Danielle Allen. Political friendship, as the name might imply, involves demonstrating a certain respect and consideration for one’s fellow citizens. It aims to help us forge agreements and disagree more constructively when agreement is not possible.

Participation in the game requires a willingness to talk about politics–including some subjects that might be challenging–and a willingness to seriously consider why your discussion partners think and feel the way they do about the topics you discuss.

More details will be provided on game night by the game’s creator. Food will be provided. We hope to see you there. Please feel free to bring friends.
