I recently attended and filmed the premiere screening of “American Radical: the trials of Norman Finkelstein” in Sydney. A fantastic documentary about an amazing individual.
The event was hosted by Independent Australian Jewish Voices and the Coalition for Justice and Peace in Palestine on June 8, 2010 in Sydney, Australia.
After the screening of the film the floor was open for discussion during a Q & A session with a panel of guest speakers who included:
Antony Loewenstein – Independent Journalist, author of “My Israel Question” among others, political commentator and Blogger.
Peter Manning – Former Executive Producer of the landmark ABC current affairs program ‘Four Corners’. Adjunct Professor of Journalism at Sydney’s University of Technology and author of “Us and Them: Media, Muslims and the Middle East.”
Dr Peter Slezak – “Senior lecturer in philosophy at the University of New South Wales and occasional public commentator on science, philosophy, religion and politics.”
The following is a short sequence I put together of the event, published online at Antony Loewenstein’s website:
