SUMMARY:Screening and Panel Discussion: Surviving Home
DESCRIPTION:SURVIVING HOME is an intimate documentary that follows four U.S. military veterans from different generations over an eight year period as they rebuild their lives after war. Interwoven with veterans’ voices from across the country\, their unique paths of healing and transformation shed light on longterm consequences of war and raise questions about the roots of war and societal cycles of violence. \nA severely injured Iraq War veteran discovers a new voice that helps heal his wounds of war\, as he and his wife struggle to keep their marriage alive. A Vietnam War veteran becomes a Buddhist monk in an effort to come to terms with the carnage and dehumanization of combat. A female Iraq War veteran fights through the effects of Military Sexual Trauma to take on the U.S. government in a class action lawsuit that could improve the lives of the next wave of men and women in uniform. A World War II veteran\, who waited years to receive military benefits\, spends time helping others with the support of a young\, civically-minded Marine Corps veteran looking out for him. \nThrough perseverance\, humor\, inner reflection\, courage\, and the determination to help others\, they overcome many challenges\, yet they cannot foresee each bend in the road that lies ahead. \nThe screening will be followed by a panel discussion with filmmakers Jillian and Matthew Moul and local veterans\, moderated by IHC Director Susan Derwin. \nCopresented by UCSB Veterans and Military Services\, the IHC’s Critical Mass series\, UCSB Multicultural Center\, and the Resource Center for Sexual and Gender Diversity.  Screening made possible through a gift from the Gretler Foundation.

SUMMARY:Critical Mass Talk: Ady Barkan: Love and Death\, Hope and Resistance
DESCRIPTION:Sitting in that hotel armchair\, I realized that my deadly disease was giving me newfound power at the very moment it was depriving me of so much strength. My voice was growing softer\, but I was being heard by more people than ever before. My legs were disintegrating\, but more and more people were following in my footsteps. Precisely because my days were numbered\, people drew inspiration from my decision to spend them in resistance. Precisely because I faced such obstacles\, my comrades were moved by my message that struggle is never futile. \nIn this talk\, the paralyzed political activist Ady Barkan will explore the existential questions that he has faced in the wake of his terminal diagnosis with ALS\, and that the American people have faced under the Trump administration: What kind of life will our children have\, and what kind of world will they inherit? Which injustices must we accept and which ones demand our resistance? How should we spend our precious time on this earth\, and how should we die? \nA reception will follow. Copies of Eyes to the Wind will be available for purchase and there will be a free book giveaway to the first 20 students to attend with ID. \nAdy Barkan is an organizer at the Center for Popular Democracy and the founder of the Be A Hero campaign. He is the author of Eyes to the Wind: A Memoir of Love and Death\, Hope and Resistance. \nSponsored by the IHC’s Critical Mass series\, the Department of English\, and the Harry Girvetz Memorial Endowment
