SACC-Austin - "Sweden: Lessons for America?" A Provoking film screening with drinks and dialouge
Join Whole Planet Foundation and The Great Listening,
with partners The Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce
and the World Affairs Council of Austin, for a special screening of
Johan Norberg's "Sweden: Lessons for America?"
The documentary film, presented in partnership with Free to Choose Media,
examines Sweden's historical and economic evolution from one of the poorest to one
of the most
prosperous countries in the world. The film questions Americans' assumptions about
Sweden's "socialist" economy and draws the connection between Sweden's
enhanced quality of life and its attitude towards free-markets.
Starting at 6:30, we will begin networking and serving delicious
Stellar Organics wine. The film screening will begin at 7:00pm.
After the film, a round table discussion and Q&A focusing on respectful,
democratic dialogue will consider the film's topic and how economic
systems of countries impact poverty around the world.
Bar sponsored by Stellar Organics. Stellar Organics is South Africa's largest producer of fine, organic, fair trade wines. All wines are organic and vegan friendly.
