Film & Forum - On Two Fronts: Latinos and Vietnam
November 9, 2016 from 6 pm to 8 pm
Learn about history and culture by checking out this event, which follows the Latino experience during the Vietnam War. A film will show various personal stories that “reveal the cost and impact of the war on families and communities in Arizona and beyond,” according to the website, so it’s a great way to prepare for Veteran’s Day on the 11th. Participate in a discussion after the film.
November 12, 2016 at 3 pm and 7:30 pm
Learn more about the American soldier experience by watching this play, which features actors reading real letters from soldiers serving in the Middle East. The Chandler Center says the play “without politicizing gives audiences a powerful portrait of the soldier experience in the ongoing war.”
