Women’s Human Rights Film Series: “Forbidden Voices”
Screening of documentary “Forbidden Voices: How to Start a Revolution with a Computer” and discussion to follow. Their voices are suppressed, prohibited and censored, but world-famous bloggers Yoani Sánchez, Zeng Jinyan and Farnaz Seifi are not frightened of their dictatorial regimes. These fearless women stand for a new, networked generation of modern rebels in Cuba, China and Iran as they use social media to denounce the violations of human rights and freedom of speech in their countries.
Co-sponsored by Advocacy for Human Rights, Friends of the St. Paul Public Library and Friends of the Hennepin County Library.
Program is free and open to the public. Seating is first come, first served.
