About this event

Featuring films which highlight different themes and issues across the social justice landscape, Freedom Forward offers a space for reflection on histories of collective struggle, the hope that drives them, and freedom on the horizon. The series is intended to serve as a political education space which nourishes and inspires future action, solidarity, and creativity as we build a more just and equitable world. All film screenings are free and open to the public. The series is sponsored by The Action Lab, The Initiative for Community Power at the NYU School of Law, and Make the Road NY.

Each screening will start promptly at 6.30pm and include a filmmaker talk with invited guests, designed to explore the central themes of the film.
