FEDAYIN: Le Combat de Georges Abdallah (George Abdallah’s Fight) Film Screening

Unitarian Universalists for Justice in the Middle East (Shreveport Chapter) will be screening FEDAYIN: Le Combat de Georges Abdallah (George Abdallah’s Fight) on Saturday (19 October 2024) at 3:00 PM.

The location for this screening is The Highland Center (520 Olive Street, Shreveport LA  71104).

This 2021 documentary explores the life and struggle of Georges Abdallah — a Lebanese Arab advocate for Palestinian freedom who has been imprisoned in France for 39 years.

Abdallah was convicted in 1984 on charges of fighting with the Lebanese Armed Revolutionary Factions against the Israeli military invasion.

He was eligible for parole in 1999 — yet despite approval by French judges and even a request by the Lebanese government that he be deported back to his home country — the French government has refused and he remains in prison.

Pledge to Vote Potluck (22 September 2024)

The All Souls “Pledge to Vote” potluck is happening this Sunday (22 September 2024) immediately after the 11:00 AM worship service.

Bring a dish to share (or just show up – we usually have plenty at our potluck lunches) and join us as we kick off Together Louisiana’s statewide Pledge to Vote campaign at All Souls.

Pledge to Vote is a person-to-person voter mobilization effort that has proven to increase voter turnout by up to 54%, with particular success increasing participation among so-called “casual voters.”

We do realize that most All Souls members are anything but “casual” about voting.  You may be thinking “I vote every time — why do I need to take the pledge?”

By taking the pledge and then following through and voting, you become part of a large and broad coalition of active voters who can let our elected leaders know that we are paying attention and we vote.

You are welcome to take the pledge ahead of time online or bring a dish this Sunday and share a meal with us to learn more and take the pledge together.
