Merci Congo Screening

Amnesty International, Enough Project and Intel

Amnesty International-UW Students, the Enough Project, and Intel are hosting a screening of "Merci Congo." Following the film will be a panel discussion with filmmaker Paul Freedman, student organizer Ellen Bresnick, and Neema Namadamu, an advocate for women's rights in the Democratic Republic of Congo. "For more than 20 years, war and chaos have plagued the mineral-rich region of eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Violence in Eastern Congo, funded largely by the illegal exploitation of minerals, has left more than 5 million Congolese dead since 1996. Merci Congo is about several activists devoted to bringing peace to the region."
