Changing the World, One Wall at a Time
Film screening and discussion with Maziar Bahari
Toronto Baha’i Centre (288 Bloor Street W.)
Friday, May 4, 7:30-9:00pm (Doors open at 7pm)
Changing the World, One Wall at a Time tells the story of Education Is Not A Crime – one of the world’s largest street art and human rights campaign to raise awareness of education discrimination by Iran’s government against tens of thousands of young Baha’is.
The film features interviews with popular street artists from around the world – as well as activists with experience of the Civil Rights movement, the anti-Apartheid struggle in South Africa, and human rights work on behalf of Iranians of all backgrounds. Iranian Baha’is with personal experience of being denied their right to higher education also share their stories.
A screening of the film will be followed by a Q and A with film maker and journalist, Maziar Bahari.
The event is supported by the Baha’i Community of Canada’s Office of Public Affairs and Education Is Not a Crime.
