The Public School Los Angeles

Join us for our third film screening and political education event, as we watch Roza: The Country of Two Rivers and have a discussion on the politics of the Kurdish freedom movement together with Ceko, a Kurdish activist from Rojava. Roza: The Country of Two Rivers is a documentary film made in 2016 by activists in Rojava, in northern Syria. It explores the political system being organized in the midst of the Syrian civil war under the leadership of the Kurdish freedom movement. The film gives glimpses of the system of neighborhood assemblies being created to manage society, the movement for women's liberation, the creation of a cooperative economy, the democratic cooperation between different ethnic and religious groups, and the military front.
