There are many ways that you can help educate your community about the impact of U.S. policy towards Latin America by using different artistic media.
Here are a few ideas:
- Film Festival. Ask your local movie theater to sponsor a series of films with a Latin America/human rights theme, or plan your own film festival on campus.
- Thematic Meals. Host a dinner featuring dishes from Latin American countries, either by preparing food yourself or gathering at a local restaurant. Have a theme, play international music, and decorate—and then hand out information, or give a short talk about the issues you are working on.
- Art Shows. Ask art students or local artists to create and donate works with a peace and justice/Latin America theme for exhibition and/or raffle.
