Naila and the Uprising

Narratives from the perspective of oppressed people are too often absent from mainstream media. 'Naila and the Uprising' gives voice to the Palestinian struggle for liberation. That struggle against settler colonialism and military occupation is directly connected to the movement for racial justice and Indigenous rights here in the US.

'Naila and the Uprising' was featured as part of the acclaimed, 'Women, War and Peace' series on PBS. We are thrilled to be able bring this film to our local community.
