About this Event

Featuring some of the biggest names in the movement, "Seeds for Liberation" centers Palestinian voices and experiences while connecting the Free Palestine movement to Black, Chicano, and other collective struggles. From Gaza and the West Bank to Stop Cop City and digital activism, the film spans decades of solidarity and culminates in reflections on what liberation and a free Palestine truly mean.

**Filmed on iPhones with B-Roll footage provided by activists and journalists from across the globe.
