In San Francisco: "Under Suspicion" an event worth attending!

[judy]

An event that will give you chills as to what we have lost after September 11th 2001.
This will be in San Francisco, Tuesday, October 25, 7:00 pm
SF Film Society | New People Cinema
1746 Post Street (Webster/Buchanan)
But in other cities as well at some point.

Under Suspicion, charts the development of a series of stories, interviews, videos and an animation that the Center for Investigative Reporting produced in collaboration with NPR to mark the tenth anniversary of 9/11. The joint investigation uncovered that Department of Homeland Security programs such as See Something, Say Something and Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting have resulted in suspicious activity reports about innocent citizens, often without their knowledge. The investigation zeroes in on one location, the Mall of America near Minneapolis, where a large private security operation has questioned thousands of people, often passing their information on to police and even the FBI. Most mall visitors interviewed by CIR and NPR say they were unaware that suspicious activity reports describing their encounters with mall security were shared with local police and could remain in law enforcement files for indefinite periods of time. The project raises questions about the price Americans have paid for increased security since the terrorist attacks.

Editors and reporters from CIR will present video, audio and animated content, elucidating the story behind the story and addressing the key issues raised.
