"THE CLICK TRAP" 23 October 8 pm @cbase
How can pop-up ads used to sell shoes also undermine global democracy? Digital advertising no longer only markets products, but increasingly disinformation.
Investigative journalists and online activists reveal the unsettling reach of an unregulated industry in this alarming tech-sposé.

Recommended #educational #documentary on the evils of #USA #imperialism on #PuertoRico & #Hawaii. This #DocFilm will make you feel sad & angry & it will help you better understand why many people #Indigenous to those lands are still fighting for justice.
Puerto Rico and Hawaiʻi are usually sold as paradise, beaches, culture, escape. But behind the postcards is a dark reality: debt, unaffordable living, mass displacement, and #political systems designed far from the people who live there.
Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory with no voting power, governed in part by an unelected fiscal board. Hawaiʻi is a U.S. state, built on the overthrow of the world’s first internationally recognized #Indigenous kingdom.
This video starts in Puerto Rico, then moves to Hawaiʻi, to show how American policy, debt, and land speculation are reshaping island societies, and who benefits when paradise becomes unaffordable.

This is a good #documentary to watch to learn more about how the evil #USA has lied/manipulated geopolitics to exploit #LatinAmerica for decades.
[This is the story of how an exotic berry in Jamaica built a multinational empire: the United Fruit Company, El Pulpo, The Octopus, a corporation so powerful it could make and break nations.
How a need for cheap bananas led a private company to gain control of land, ports, railways, electricity, dictators… and then call in the world’s most powerful military to destroy a democracy that threatened its profits.
It’s a story of plantations run like prisons, of psychological warfare, of villages burned in the name of “freedom” and of how the model built here was exported across Latin America, creating decades of dictatorships, death squads, and disappearances a machinery of terror so refined that, decades later, the world would see the same techniques used by US soldiers on the other side of the world.
This isn’t a story about fruit.
It’s about who is allowed to have a future and who is not.]

In Canada, the histories of residential school survivors are being challenged by a surge of denialism. Dismantling Denialism confronts those attempts to rewrite history — and explores what it will take to defend truth and reconciliation.

Tonight's #documentary to watch.
#Undercover in the #AltRight : Road to the White House! | #ENDEVR Documentary
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=J5HPW0cvPro
For the past year, our operative Patrik Hermansson has been living undercover, as #Swedish student Erik Hellberg, at the heart of the alt-right. He #infiltrated some of the most notorious far-right networks in the US and the UK, culminating in the violent clashes in Charlottesville 2017. He extracted damning information that runs all the way to the #WhiteHouse. And he caught it all on #HiddenCamera.

I highly recommend watching this #documentary to understand how young #Israeli #dissenters / #ConscientiousObjectors feel & the consequences they face for trying to stand for justice. They're in the minority in Israel & are often called traitors by Zionazis. I know some former Israelis in BC who have been ostracized from their families; who refuse to stop being bigoted Zionazis & support more violent land thefts from Palestinians. Dissenters don't get support from a society that has been brainwashed to hate all Arabs - they usually face abuses/harassment for taking moral & ethical stands against occupational forces/violence.
This #DocFilm was made well before Oct 7.
Like all Israeli youth, Atalya is expected to become a soldier. Unlike most, she questions the practices of her country’s military, and becomes determined to challenge this rite of passage. Despite her family’s #political disagreements and personal concerns, she refuses #military duty and is imprisoned for her dissent. Her courage moves those around her to reconsider their own political positions and power to effect change. Objector follows Atalya to prison and beyond, offering a unique window into the Israeli - #Palestinian conflict from the perspective of a young woman who seeks truth and takes a stand for justice.
This documentary was produced by Buried Seed Productions and directed by Molly Stuart. It was first released in 2019.
I Refuse to Fight for Israel

After you watch her #documentary on white racist nationalists in USA, I also recommend her #DocFilm on #DomesticViolence.
1 in 4 women that you know have likely suffered or witnessed domestic abuse & violence in their lives. We need to be open about talking about it & helping more victims.
I suffered silently from DV on/off for 13 years, when younger, due to feeling ashamed & not having any safe spaces to obtain more help.

Deeyah Khan's #documentary is worth watching.
"I sat down face to face with #WhiteNationalists and #neoNazis, men who see people like me a #Muslim woman and daughter of immigrants, as their enemy.
I wanted to understand: what drives their anger? Why do they believe in hate and division?
White Right: Meeting the Enemy takes you inside their world. It is a journey into the heart of #extremism and an exploration of whether dialogue and a recognition of our shared #humanity can break through walls of hate.
This was one of the most dangerous, personal and meaningful projects I have ever worked on."

Renee Thompson is trying to make it as a top fashion model in New York. She's got the looks, the walk and the drive. But she’s a black model in a world where white women represent the standard of beauty. Agencies rarely hire black models. And when they do, they want them to look “like white girls dipped in chocolate.”
The Colour of Beauty is a shocking short documentary that examines racism in the fashion industry. Is a black model less attractive to designers, casting directors and consumers? What is the colour of beauty?

Had a good nap. About to start making wonton soup for family dinner.
I plan to rewatch this #documentary after cooking. It was the 1st documentary I'd watched about high altitude #mountaineering. I first saw it in 1990, at a friend's place - he was an avid mountaineer. After hearing stories from one of my clients about her past big mountaineering experiences yesterday, I wanted to rewatch this amazing film.
I highly recommend viewing this old #DocFilm if you're interested in learning more about mountaineering & the pioneers of high altitude summit climbs.
The Hard Way - #Annapurna South Face (1970)
It took them 2 months to reach the summit. 1 day to get back down to base camp.

Vancouver is consistently ranked as one of the best cities to live in. Multiculturalism and inclusivity are some of the most defining features of the city. Yet recently there has been a strong push for rejuvenating the historic neighbourhoods of the city. One of the most visible neighbourhoods to undergo such rejuvenation is Chinatown. It was initially developed along Carrall and Pender Street by the Chinese labourers who first settled in the 1880’s. Once a site of small businesses owned by Chinese families, Chinatown was considered to be one of the poorest areas of Vancouver for many years.
However now Chinatown is being developed into an up-and-coming neighbourhood of the city. Newly opened fashion stores, trendy cafes and rising condos are a visible sign of Chinatown's gentrification. Gentrification is often associated with urban development that provides high-quality housing, increased employment and business opportunities. But besides these positive outcomes, gentrification also brings significant increases in rent and the unequal distribution of developmental benefits to the middle class. This often leads to the displacement of lower-income classes from areas of traditional residence.
This short video-documentary was created in hopes to represent a diversity of voices of Chinatown.

Between 1952 and 1960, Britain fought a vicious war in Kenya against the anticolonial Mau Mau movement. It was an exceptionally bloody conflict, with atrocities committed on both sides. For decades, many of the worst abuses by British colonial forces were kept hidden. Piecing together survivor testimonies and expert analysis from British and Kenyan historians, this film tells a complete and detailed story for the first time of how Britain was involved in systemic torture – including accounts of murders, rapes and forced castrations.
A Very British Way of Torture is a film by Ed McGown and produced by Rob Newman.

My friend & one of my first #filmmaking mentors here(Victoria) was Jordan. He's married to one of my Filipino friend's cousins & is a solid human being. Jordan saved me from being scammed & manipulated by shady people in film industry here. He used to loan me gear for free to help support me when I was still in the film industry.
Bangkok Girl is a #DocumentaryFilm that was both produced and directed by Jordan Clark. It's a #LowBudgetFilm, having cost $10,000 to produce, and takes #SexTourism in #Bangkok as its subject.
Bangkok Girl is 43 minutes long and focuses on Pla (full name: Sirirat Rapsithorn), a #bargirl who is 19 years old and who guides Clark through the city. The #DocFilm explores Pla's background and how she came to be where she is. Pla began working as a bargirl at the age of 13, and, while she had managed to avoid being forced into #prostitution up until the point that the documentary was filmed, the film suggests that she will eventually be forcibly prostituted.
In November 2005, the film aired on "The Lens", a program on Canada's #CBC Television. Sweden's #SverigesTelevision also aired the film.

Fellow #SaveOldGrowth forest defender, Sheena, made a short film. It includes the jingle dance circle with me & several other #environmental #landback #activists on the bridge between River & Landback resistance camps.
River & Landback camps were main strongholds at Fairy Creek blockade. River camp was the first resistance camp set up in 2020 & it ran for a year before final big raid. There are 2 very rough logging roads that lead up to untouched old growth forest tracts from these camps. River camp is also where people could go hike to see/visit with Grandmother & Grandfather cedars. After we were removed, industry started cutting more roads up into the untouched old growth tracts. Teal Jones logging company has since pulled out due to financial issues & everything is up in the air at this time. Temporary deferral was renewed this year for some tracts by this one particular area in the watershed. Still hoping for permanent protections as the elder trees are not included in this small deferral.
"My student documentary on the Fairy Creek/Ada'itsx old growth forest blockade 🌲 something of a collage, made with many hands and hearts. While the blockade and movement has evolved and gone through many stages, the momentum remains and many still carry forth the activism in heart and deed."

Got up early to draw hot bath for Mom.
I'm having morning tea & going to start watching the #documentary film, Where the Oilve Tree Weeps, now.
You can donate to view it. There is also a free option for folks who are financially strapped.
[ Where Olive Trees Weep offers a searing window into the struggles and resilience of the #Palestinian people under #Israeli occupation. It explores themes of loss, trauma, and the quest for justice.
We follow, among others, Palestinian #journalist and #therapist Ashira Darwish, grassroots #activist Ahed Tamimi, and Israeli journalist Amira Hass. We also witness Dr. Gabor Maté offer #TraumaHealing work to a group of women who were tortured in Israeli prisons.
Ancient landscapes bear deep scars, having witnessed the brutal reality of ancestral land confiscation, expulsions, imprisonment, home demolitions, water deprivation, and denial of basic human rights. Yet, through the veil of oppression, we catch a glimpse of resilience—deep roots that have carried the Palestinian people through decades of darkness and shattered lives.
This emotional journey bares the humanity of the oppressed while grappling with the question: what makes the oppressor so ruthlessly blind to its own cruelty? ]

Lisa Jackson and The National #Film Board - #NFB of #Canada have created a #documentary that redefines #Indigenous #knowledge and #teachings using the life and times of #Elder, #cosmology and #astronomy expert, Wilfred Buck.
“We are in the process of remaking an age-old song . . . signing, dreaming, praying, talking into existence once again the knowledge of our people,” said Wilfred Buck.
Moving between the earth and stars, past and present, this hybrid feature documentary follows the extraordinary life of Wilfred Buck, a charismatic and impertinent #Cree Elder who overcame a harrowing – yet all too familiar — history of displacement, racism and addiction by reclaiming ancestral star knowledge and ceremony.
Buck is humble, profound, funny, always real and a master #storyteller. Narration taken from his #autobiography, I Have Lived Four Lives, condenses the loss and desperate pain of his youth into powerful, Beat-like poetry.

Sunday morning, recommended #documentary film.
Before the formation of the Israel Defense Forces in 1948, there were three underground #Zionist #militias - The #Haganah, the #Irgun and the #Lehi.
They differed in tactics and beliefs, and at times fought with each other - but together they terrorised #Palestinian villages and executed attacks and #bombings against the #British to force them to give up control of the land.
They blew up hotels in #Jerusalem, embassies in #Europe and #assassinated a UN mediator.
After #Israel was officiated as a state - the three #terrorist militias would create the #IDF - and their leaders would go on to form Israel’s government, become #politicians, #ambassadors and #PrimeMinisters.
And their dark #history would be forgotten.
