The Screening

Made sure to be there early, and was glad for it since the projector had some color saturation problem. Danika fixed it by swapping the disc to her computer. We had a small crowd at the screening including a student journalist who took pictures for the Arbiter. Introducing the film, we relayed a short history of the legislation in Idaho and why the speakers in the hearing were supporting the Add the Words campaign, all for different reasons including overwhelming public support. Each speaker had a few minutes to discuss a relevant issue: how businesses view the cultural environment for their employees, how local faith leaders feel on the issue and how local policy makers can affect the change going forward. We shared links for outreach into the community and how to continue affecting change locally so that the Add the Words campaign can be successful moving forward.
