The President’s Advisory Committee on Human Rights, Equity, and Decolonization (PACHRED) invites the Brock University community to a screening of Letter to My Tribe, a video essay by award-winning filmmaker and installation artist b.h. Yael.
The film explores the question: Why don’t more Jews and Israelis speak out about Palestine? Using personal reflections, interwoven interviews with journalists, activists, and a rabbi, and documentation of actions in the West Bank, Iraq, and Poland, Yael examines the intersections of identity, history, and political responsibility.
Following the screening, b.h. Yael will participate in a Q&A session, offering insights into the making of the film, the themes it addresses, and the broader conversations it aims to foster.
b.h. Yael is a Professor of Integrated Media at OCAD University and an internationally recognized filmmaker whose work explores activism, geopolitical and environmental urgencies, and social justice. Her films have been exhibited in festivals, galleries, and academic institutions worldwide.
Monday, March 10, 2025, from 1:00pm to 4:00pm
