SUMMARY:Virtual Lecture with Author Loung Ung for her book\, "First They Killed My Father" in S-132
DESCRIPTION:On Tuesday\, February 27 from 11:00 a.m.- 12:15 p.m. we will be joined in room S-132 by internationally recognized author and advocate for peace Loung Ung via video conference. Her story should be of great interest to English\, history\, and political science classes as well as those who want to learn about stories of the immigrant experience\, surviving trauma and genocide\, or to anyone who saw the Netflix film adaptation of the book. Please contact Sarah Shurts sshurts@bergen.edu if you are interested in bringing your class to the discussion since seating will be limited to 75 (include how many students you plan to bring). \nLoung’s award-winning book\, First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers\, is a national bestseller that has been published in fourteen countries. It won the ALAPA award for “Excellence in Adult Non-fiction Literature” in 2001 and was selected by the ALA as a ‘Best Book for Young Adults’. In 2017\, Loung co-wrote the screenplay to adapt her first book\, First They Killed My Father\, into a 2017 Netflix Original movie directed by Angelina Jolie. The movie is based on Loung’s memoir and is now streaming in 190 countries. She is also the author of Lucky Child and Lulu in the Sky: a Daughter of Cambodia Finds Love\, Healing\, and Double Happiness. Her work is frequently taught in high schools and universities worldwide. \nWhen Loung Ung was five years old\, the Khmer Rouge army stormed into Phnom Penh\, forcing her family to flee and disperse. Loung was trained as a child soldier in a work camp for orphans while her siblings were sent to labor camps. Some two million Cambodians – out of a population of seven million –died at the hands of the infamous Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge regime. Among the victims were both of Loung’s parents\, two sisters\, and 20 other relatives. In 1980\, Loung\, her older brother Meng and his wife\, escaped by boat to Thailand\, where they spent five months in a refugee camp before relocating to the United States in Vermont. \nHarrowing\, yet hopeful\, Loung’s story is an unforgettable account of a family shaken and shattered\, yet miraculously sustained by courage and love in the face of unspeakable brutality. With a writer’s understanding of story telling\, Loung wraps her personal story in history and politics. Chapter by chapter\, Loung walks her audience through the most horrific events of her life—separations\, starvation\, rage\, heartbreaks\, loss—and shares how she came out of them with her love\, humor\, and spirituality intact.

SUMMARY:International Holocaust Remembrance Day Film Showing- C313
DESCRIPTION:Paper Clips is the moving and inspiring documentary film that captures how these students responded to lessons about the Holocaust with a promise to honor every lost soul by collecting one paper clip for each individual exterminated by the Nazis. Despite the fact that they had previously been unaware of and unfamiliar with the Holocaust\, their dedication was absolute. Their plan was simple but profound. The amazing result\, a memorial railcar filled with 11 million paper clips (representing six million Jews and five million gypsies\, homosexuals and other victims of the Holocaust) which stands permanently in their schoolyard\, is an unforgettable lesson of how a committed group of children and educators can make a difference.

SUMMARY:Documentary Film: Navalny
DESCRIPTION:Streaming of NAVALNY Winner of the Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature and the Sundance Film Festival Favorite Award \nDate: October 16- October 28 \nTo stream\, click here \nNAVALNY takes viewers inside the careful investigation into the shocking and brazen assassination attempt against Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny\, and who was behind it. Through his years-long campaign against corruption among Russia’s elites\, Navalny has developed powerful enemies. His publicized revelations\, and calls for democratic reforms\, have enraged Vladimir Putin\, who refuses to even say his name in public. In August 2020\, Navalny was secretly poisoned with a military-grade chemical nerve agent in an elaborate attempt on his life. Despite denials from the Russian government\, the poison was later linked to the Kremlin through investigations by international news organizations\, including Bellingcat and CNN. \nFor more information on the film\, watch the trailer.
