I had heard about this day before but didn't really know what it was all about. Today I came accross some more info and it sounds worth checking out.
The idea behind it was this: the feeling that we are fundamentally different than people in other countries or parts of the world can lead to conflicts, lack of harmony etc. The person who put this day together decided to use film as a medium to try to bring people together and learn about our similarities. To try think more about ourselves as a “we” instead of an “us” and “them”.
2,500 short films were submitted by people all over the world and 24 were selected for the day. These films are intended to inspire and to allow us to see the world through another person’s eyes.
Pangea day in Ontario will be on City TV and will run from 2pm-6pm (playing the 24 short films – with music and special hosts). It will be broadcast world wide. If you want to see what time and channel it is on in your area visit this link: http://www.pangeaday.org/television.php
Or you can watch it online at www.pangeaday.org
