WSU Movies that Move Me! – April 25th
Join We Stand Undivided for our monthly movie showcasing a film, and brief follow-up discussion! We’ll watch movies about people of different backgrounds, races, cultures, religions, nationalities, etc. These movies will educate us, inspire us and move us closer to seeing our common humanity.
We’ve rescheduled our movie from February where we celebrated Black History Month. Many celebrate and highlight the many contributions of African Americans who changed America and continue to change and shape this country. But Black History is also about honoring the lives of our ancestors; those courageous, powerful souls filled with strength and wisdom whose blood continues to run through our veins. Those whose stubborn, insistent and unwavering determination allow us to be here today.
Watch a moving video of African-American divers who search for shipwrecks of enslaved people and connect with their ancestors in the process. Please join us…and have a candle ready so we can all light afterwards to honor those ancestors.

We’ll watch movies about people of different backgrounds, races, cultures, religions, nationalities, etc. These movies will educate us, inspire us and move us closer to seeing our common humanity.
WSU’s focus for this month’s Movies that Move Me is on homelessness. “No person should be homeless if you have public structures and public policies that allow people to have homes, food, and lead a dignified life in the US. Unfortunately, homelessness statistics reveal that there is still a lot of work to be done.”
We’ll be watching a documentary on homelessness titled “Voices of Our City,” which puts a human face on a crucial problem. It is the story about a unique choir dedicated to helping San Diegans who struggle with homelessness. Fourteen homeless members of the choir share their stories; from women who have been abused and used, to those battling addictions, to people who just can’t afford housing, to people who need medical care. They talk about their backgrounds, why they are homeless, the inhumanity of homelessness, their hopes and dreams, and what they each think the solutions to the homeless problem is.

Each year we observe Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day and reflect on the work that still needs to be done for racial equality. You know he was a civil rights leader, but did you also know that King’s legacy, to a large extent, was intentionally diminished? That his thought and mission was continually evolving? That he had become international in his commentary? Many historians feel this is why he was assassinated. As Marc Lamont Hill put it, King was “A Black radical anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, revolutionary Christian who was murdered as an enemy of the State.” King’s contributions and speeches go far beyond his “I Have a Dream” speech. This month we’ll gain a more comprehensive view and appreciation of this giant.
“Cowardice asks the question, ‘Is it safe?’ Expediency asks the question, ‘Is it politic?’ Vanity asks the question, ‘Is it popular?’ But conscience asks the question, ‘Is it right?’ And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular but one must take it because one’s conscience tells one that it is right.”

We’ll watch movies about people of different backgrounds, races, cultures, religions, nationalities, etc. These movies will educate us, inspire us and move us closer to seeing our common humanity.
December’s movie, The Human Family Tree, is a “must see”! We are all 99.9% genetically identical. “On the most diverse street in the most diverse city in the most diverse country in the world, a team of National Geographic scientists swab the cheeks of some 200 random New Yorkers-hoping to reveal clues about our ancestral footprints and prove we are all cousins in the “family of man.” Join geneticist Spencer Wells and a team from National Geographic’s Genographic Project as they trace the human journey through time, from our origins in the heart of Africa to the ends of the world. Cutting edge science, coupled with a cast of New Yorkers-each with their own unique genetic history-helps paint a picture of these amazing journeys. The Human Family Tree answers some of humanity’s most burning questions-who we are and where we come from-and forces us to change how we think not only about our relationships with our neighbors, but ourselves.

We’ll watch movies about people of different backgrounds, races, cultures, religions, nationalities, etc. These movies will educate us, inspire us and move us closer to seeing our common humanity.
In commemoration of Native American Heritage Month, we’ll feature “Standing Bear’s Footsteps,” a story of an Indian chief who went to court to prove he was a person—and in the process redefined what it means to be an American. The 60-minute documentary weaves together interviews, recreations and present-day scenes to tell a story about human rights, one that resonates powerfully in the present.”
