Ay Mariposa Film Screening & Live Q&A
at Galaxy 2020
Galaxy 2020, our annual sustainability learning exchange -- this year in a virtual format -- will take place on Friday, June 19th from 7:00-8:30 PM EDT with a brief keynote & awards, followed by a live Q&A with Ay Mariposa filmmakers, main characters, and local immigrant rights organizations.
Ay Mariposa is a compelling, visually lush documentary film depicting two women and a rare community of butterflies on the front lines in a battle against the US-Mexico border wall. https://www.aymariposafilm.com/

We meet each year around this date, as it sits at an important confluence: Juneteenth (June 19), World Refugee Day (June 20), and the Summer Solstice (June 21).
