Two videos will be shown this month.

(1) Genetic Roulette: The Gamble of Our Lives  (85 min)

From studying 9/11, most become aware that the corruption within our government has reached draconian lows. Our featured documentary this month reveals another example of this corruption. This time our health is at stake.

Are you and your family on the wrong side of a bet?

When the US government ignored repeated warnings by its own scientists and allowed untested genetically modified (GM) crops into our environment and food supply, it was a gamble of unprecedented proportions. The health of all living things and of all future generations was put at risk by an infant technology.

After two decades, physicians and scientists have uncovered a grave trend. The same serious health problems found in lab animals, livestock, and pets that have been fed GM foods are now on the rise in the US population. And when people and animals stop eating genetically modified organisms (GMOs), their health improves.

This seminal documentary by Jeffrey Smith, author of the world’s best-selling book on GMOs, Seeds of Deception, provides compelling evidence to help explain the deteriorating health of Americans, especially among children, and offers a recipe for protecting ourselves and our future.

We will have copies of this film available for a donation at this showing, but if you are unable to join us, you may watch the film online, and you may purchase it here.  When you purchase the film, you will receive a bonus DVD, Seeds of Freedom, which contains the following informative specials:

(2) Unequal Justice: The Relentless Rise of the 1% Court (20 min)
