Fourth Annual Beach Break Film Festival Day 2: The Last Class & The Changebaker
The Last Class
The must see film of the year - American political economist, professor, author, and social media sensation Robert Reich teaches his final "Wealth and Poverty" class to 1,000 students at UC Berkeley, ending a 40-year career that reached 40,000 students. One thousand fill the biggest lecture hall on the UC Berkeley campus, the last class to receive Reich's wisdom and exhortations not to accept that the world has to stay the way it is. His belief in the next generation's ability to take on the fight is inspiring.
The Changebaker
Manolo Betancur immigrated to the U.S. to chase the American dream and escape the horrors of war in Colombia, where he was a captain in the Army. He uses nightmares of the past to fuel his mission to create jobs for fellow immigrants at his bakery in North Carolina. After a string of ICE raids, the shop has become something more than just a trendy local spot for baked goods. Now, it has become a hub for local activism and a symbol of hope and resilience for the community. A sign hangs proudly at Betancur’s door for all to see: "Made in America by the Hands of Immigrants."
