Chất Độc Đế Quốc, Community fundraiser and fim screening

  • 720 Spadina Avenue Toronto, ON, M5S 2T9 Canada (map)

Organizers: Very Láo.d, Climate4Palestine Toronto and Change Course

Israel’s use of white phosphorus in Palestine and toxic glyphosate in South Lebanon as seen recently as  modern acts of ecocide. As the Vietnamese diaspora, we carry the legacy of war and environmental destruction, especially from Agent Orange. On February 28, join us Very.Lao.d and  community member for a fundraiser supporting Trần Tố Nga, a survivor of Agent Orange and a courageous activist. She is suing Monsanto-Bayer, Dow Chemical, and others for their role in manufacturing the toxic chemical. Her case seeks justice for millions affected and recognition of ecocide as a crime.

Trần Tố Nga’s body bears the scars: dioxin poisoning, cancer, and the loss of her daughter. Her fight is for global reparations of imperial violence and corporate accountability.

The event features a screening of The People vs. Agent Orange (2020) and a community discussion on ecocide, climate justice, and imperial violence.
