In this talk, Prof. Benton asks the following questions: How do different African states respond to the public health challenges posed by HIV/AIDS, Ebola, and global emergency surgery? How is this complicated in post-conflict contexts? What role do international donors play in these interventions?

ORIENTED Film Screening
Tuesday, March 15, 2016
4:30 p.m.
LPAC Cinema

The documentary, “Oriented” directed and produced by Jake Witzenfeld, follows the lives of three gay Palestinian friends confronting their national and sexual identity in Tel Aviv, Israel.

The documentary follows the lives of Khader Abu Seif and his friends, Fadi and Naim. All three are gay Palestinian citizens of Israel who live and work in Tel Aviv. They are politically active and assertive about their right to define their own complex identity — and they’re not at all interested in conforming to the expectations of others.
