Tuesday, December 18, 7pm
Grand Theatre, Salem, Oregon
Admission: $5
Post-screening discussion featuring Dr. Edwin Dover, Ph.D., a teacher, scholar, and long-time participant in American politics

The Salem Progressive Film Series is screening the documentary Capturing the Flag on December 18 at 7pm. In this film a group of volunteers across the country mobilizes to work on voter protection three months before the 2016 election to observe elections and to assure that all those who wish to vote are legally allowed to do so. Laverne Berry, Steven Miller, and Claire Wright head to North Carolina. What they find at the polls serves as both a warning and a call to action for anyone interested in protecting the "One Man, One Vote" fundamental of our democracy.

After the viewing of the documentary, there will be a discussion led by guest speaker Dr. Edwin Dover, Ph.D. who is the author of six books and numerous academic papers about American presidential elections. He has been a candidate for public office and has fulfilled many roles in numerous political campaigns, including campaign manager.
