SUMMARY:Free Virtual Movie Screening Series (designed for classrooms)
DESCRIPTION:Are you an educator or a student? \nAs Arab American Heritage Month comes to a close\, the conversation doesn’t have to. \nFrom May 14–21\, AFMI Education presents a free virtual screening series designed for classrooms — featuring 21 short films by Arab filmmakers across the diaspora\, paired with ready-to-use study guides. \nAcross four curated programs — Palestinian Narratives\, Women’s Perspectives\, Arab American Stories\, and Lebanese Voices — students are invited to explore themes of identity\, resilience\, migration\, belonging\, and self-expression through voices often underrepresented in traditional curricula. \nThis program is open to students ages 13+ (with select films for 16+). \nNo cost. No barriers. Just powerful storytelling. \n🎬 Available exclusively to educators and students. Visit our website to sign up and bring these stories into your classroom.
