November 16, Brisbane – Rojava Solidarity Screening
Rojava is under attack by Turkish Fascism after having defeated ISIS. Join us on the 16th of November in Bunyapa Park, West End, for “The Communes of Rojava”.
Communes of Rojava is an in-depth look into the inner workings of the commune system of Rojava and how they work in practice. Rojava is a multi-ethnic, pluralist, women’s liberationist, and radically democratic autonomous zone that has grown out of the context of the Syrian Civil War. While there is frequent and thorough reporting on the military aspects of the Revolution in Rojava, especially their fight against ISIS and Turkey, the social revolution as it relates to the everyday lives of the people living there is rarely given anything more than a cursory overview. This film is one attempt to make up for that gap in easily digestible information about the way the day-to-day autonomous organizing affects daily life in Rojava.
All donations will go to Cadus, an independent aid group providing emergency medical care in Rojava. https://www.cadus.org/en/
