We’re concluding our documentary film series this semester—which included films on the “Dictator’s Playbook” used by Kim Il Sung of North Korea and Saddam Hussein of Iraq—with a film called “A Thousand Cuts.” This film is the story of Nobel Prize-winning journalist Maria Ressa, who used the tools of the social media age to resist the disinformation and oppression of Rodrigo Duterte’s strong-man rule of the modern Philippines. Come for PIZZA and expert discussion!
