Watch a couple MYgration Films with us each month
MYgration Films:
Watch a couple MYgration Films with us each month from the comfort of your own computer on the third Monday of each month (December through August) at 7 pm Eastern time. We’ll have the subject, the filmmaker and perhaps a cultural expert for some conversation about the film and any issues that might come up – unless one of those people aren’t available. You can join the conversation through the Facebook live chat. Themes and films tentatively schedule for the coming year are below.
Grab some popcorn* and a drink and settle down for an hour of films and conversation.
*Sorry, you have to provide your own refreshments.
