SFist Tonight
We're heading to the Brava Theater Center (2789 24th Street) for the screening of Iraq For Sale: The War Profiteers, a benefit for The 2006 CounterCorp Anti-Corporate Film Festival.
Director Robert Greenwald (Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price) "examines what happens to everyday Americans — and Iraqis — when corporations go to war, revealing the inside story of the soldiers, truck drivers, widows, and children whose lives have been changed forever as a result of the staggering amount of corporate profiteering in post-invasion of Iraq."
The screening's at 7:30, but will be preceded by a protest at Bechtel Corporation (50 Beale Street) from 4:00-6:00 p.m., led by Global Exchange/CodePINK and other members of the Declaration of Peace coalition. You can buy a ticket to the film here, or at the door, for 10 bucks.
