Chicago Kent National Lawyers Guild Film Festival!

"The ultimate measure of a person is not where one stands in moments ofcomfort and convenience, but where one stands in times of challenge and controversy."

-Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Where We Stood"

On March 20th, 2003, at the start of the U.S. War on Iraq, more than 750 people were arrested in Chicago during a peaceful protest. More than 100 people were arrested in the following days during planned non-violent civil disobedience actions. This documentary features interview segments from thirty protesters and organizers, taking you inside their experiences, from chaos on the streets, to jail solidarity, to renewed commitment to peace. Dramatic footage from the March 20th demonstration and other protests illustrates stories of resistance from a cross section of those who stood up to say no to the war.

Linda Beckstrom, the producer of the film, will be joining us for the film. She will be available for discussion after the viewing. 

If you have any questions, please contact Gabe Conroe at
