A last minute decision made yesterday evening! Jeremy will be at the Edina Theater in Minneapolis at the theater for talk-backs after two of the evening shows and to intro the last show on Saturday ONLY.
He will be in and out of Minneapolis very quickly so as far as I know right now there will not be time for other events. He is in Milwaukee the day before and in NYC on Sunday.
We are grateful for any help in spreading the word. Many thanks, especially for your patience!

one of my friends responded "Very good film, very sad. Jeremy was wonderful. he is only like 40 years, and he has put his life in so much jeoprady for peace and justice. "
