Hi Postdocs,

I just want to encourage you all to go to this film screening TONIGHT 
(5pm in Redfield). I went to a screening last spring and found it to be 
a very powerful film about events that took place not that long ago very 
close to home. Knowing the history of events is a important first step 
towards solidarity. See details below.

Best,
Jesse
