“Watch Tucson’s first free screening of “Dark Money”, an award-winning documentary by Kimberly Reed exposing political corruption in Montana. Free childcare from 1:15 p.m. to 4:15 p.m., too. The film draws parallels between the local influence of dark money in Montana and the effects of corporate political spending on a national scale. We see the two parties chasing money instead of solving problems. Summit Ridge Community Church (SRCC) and Tucson’s Represent.Us chapter host this screening in collaboration with the award-winning documentary series POV (www.pbs.org/pov).
Then stay for Tucson’s first “Dark Money” after screening Q&A panel discussion including . . .

Went to a LUCHA (Living United for Change in Arizona) workshop on mass incarceration yesterday and this dark money influence on Republican Gov. Doug Ducey’s campaigns were mentioned. Today’s event is bi-partisan, so check it out and see this movie for free.
