July 20: Screening of “Merchants of Doubt”

July 20, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 9:00 pm

Please join us for a screening of Merchants of Doubt, the 2014 anti-propaganda documentary. Then a presentation by Dr. Coty Keller, ecologist, former naval captain, national security expert, and climate activist working with Citizens’ Climate Lobby.

MERCHANTS OF DOUBT examines the ways in which commercial interests hire practiced and skillful pundits to masquerade as scientific authorities with the purpose of spreading misinformation about documented threats to public health, such as toxic chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and climate change. Inspired by Naomi Oreskes’ and Erik Conway’s book, and directed by Robert Kenner, this film is a darkly funny yet informative exploration of the American spin industry.
