"Iraq War Demonstration – January 27, 2007" (24:00 minutes)
See Descriptions of Films Below...
"Where's Walden? - March, 2005" (9:38 minutes)
Members of the Southern Oregon Central Labor Council and concerned citizens go to Congressman Greg Walden's office with questions about the Bush Administration's plans to privatize Social Security. They express concerns to Walden's Staff and want to know where Greg Walden is on this issue. Before leaving they make requests to meet with Greg Walden. For more about this event go to: http://rogueimc.org/en/2005/03/4225.shtml
"Books Not Bombs - March 5, 2003" (28:56 minutes)
Hundreds of students marched to the plaza in Ashland, Oregon on March 5, 2003 chanting "Books Not Bombs." The vibrancy of youth caught in this film cannot be matched. Their message, which was made prior to the Iraq War, makes as much sense today as it did then -- as Jackson County plans to shut down the entire 15 libraries in the county-wide system due to a loss of federal funding.

"Iraq War Demonstration – January 27, 2007" (24:00 minutes)
On January 27th, 2007 over 100 Iraq war demonstrators stood strong in Medford Oregon to show a voice united with those who marched in Washington D.C. and across the nation. Citizens For Peace & Justice organized this demonstration. For more info, photos and video clips, see: http://rogueimc.org/en/2007/01/7864.shtml
CPJ holds its Film Night on the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 p.m. at the Medford Congregational United Church of Christ, 1801 East Jackson St., Medford, OR. (Go East on Jackson past Hedrick Middle School, then look for the church parking lot entrance on the left at the church and "Roots & Wings" signs.)
