December 1, 2015 | Revolution Newspaper | revcom.us
The Bob Avakian Institute is excited to announce the screening of excerpts of the film REVOLUTION AND RELIGION: The Fight for Emancipation and the Role of Religion; A Dialogue Between CORNEL WEST & BOB AVAKIAN as part of a film festival of political documentaries at Goldsmiths, University of London.
The festival runs from November 30—December 8. Revolution and Religion will be screened on Saturday, December 5, 12pm.
The film festival, titled “Films from the Underside” is being organized by Goldsmiths' Centre for Postcolonial Studies and will be showing documentaries from all over the world. The introduction to the festival's program explains: “the festival reflects the principles guiding the Centre’s intellectual activities, including its new MA in Politics, Development and the Global South: that politics must be conceived in its broadest sense, as an arena of social contestation, and not merely as electoral politics and the doings of the state; that to grasp contemporary politics, we need to start by ‘provincializing Europe’ and looking beyond its borders; and that the study of politics and society is inconceivable without a serious engagement with culture.”
